“Imagine a set of people all living in the same building. Half of them think it is a hotel, the other half think it is a prison. Those who think it a hotel might regard it as quite intolerable, and those who thought it was a prison might decide that it was really surprisingly comfortable. So that what seems the ugly doctrine is one that comforts and strengthens you in the end. The people who try to hold an optimistic view of this world would become pessimists: the people who hold a pretty stern view of it become optimistic.” PeopleThinkingWorldTryingEndsSeemsMightViewsHalfImagineThis WorldBuildingComfortComfortableRegardPrisonUglyDoctrineOptimisticHotelPessimistOther Half Author:C.

“Men speak of blind destiny, a thing without scheme or purpose. But what sort of destiny is that? Each act in this world from which there can be no turning back has before it another, and it another yet. In a vast endless net. Men imagine that the choices before them are theirs to make. But we are free to act only upon what is given. Choice is lost in the maze of generations and each act in the maze is itself an enslavement for it voids every alternative and binds one ever more tightly into the constraints that make a life.” MenWorldPurposeChoicesLostSpeakGivenDestinyImagineGenerationsThis WorldBlindEndlessAlternativesVoidImagine ThatSchemesConstraintsMazesEnslavementNo Turning Back Book:The Border Trilogy: Picador Classic Source: The Border Trilogy: Picador Classic
