Quotes by Reginald Hill (?)

“So what to do? . . . She shook her head impatiently. Choice is a largely delusional concept, her tutor used to say. Whether in politics, morals or shopping, we have far less than we imagine. In the end what we have to do often doesn't even figure on our list of pseudo-options.”

“His attitude to physical clues was rather like that of the modern Christian to miracles. They could happen, but probably not just at the moment.”
