“A clock is the only instrument specifically constructed for measuring a quantity that is intangible.”
Nina Allan, The Dollmaker

“All artists are criminals, to a degree.”
Nina Allan, The Dollmaker

“I distrust idealism. I've seen enough of it in practice to know it's rarely about the other man. You might even call it the ultimate expression of arrogance, but whatever you call it, it's not worth dying for”
Nina Allan, The Dollmaker
