Octavia E. Butler
“God is Power— Infinite, Irresistible, Inexorable, Indifferent. And yet, God is Pliable— Trickster, Teacher, Chaos, Clay. God exists to be shaped. God is Change. This is the literal truth. God can’t be resisted or stopped, but can be shaped and focused. This means God is not to be prayed to. Prayers only help the person doing the praying, and then, only if they strengthen and focus that persons resolve. If they’re used that way, they can help us in our only real relationship with God. They help us to shape God and to accept and work”
Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Sower

Octavia E. Butler
“God is Change, and in the end, God prevails. But God exists to be shaped. It isn’t enough for us to just survive, limping along, playing business as usual while things get worse and worse. If that’s the shape we give to God, then someday we must become too weak—too poor, too hungry, too sick—to defend ourselves. Then we’ll be wiped out.”
Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Sower

S.A. Chakraborty
“I do not believe ambitious men who say the only route to peace and prosperity lies in giving them more power—particularly when they do it with lands and people who are not theirs.”
S.A. Chakraborty, The Empire of Gold

S.A. Chakraborty
“Are you ready?” Nahri asked when she and Munthadir were alone.
He laughed as he strapped a wicked-looking sword to his waist. “Not in the slightest. You ?”
“God, no.” Nahri grabbed another needle-sharp dagger and flipped it into her sleeve. “Let’s go die.”
S.A. Chakraborty, The Kingdom of Copper

Octavia E. Butler
“A lot of people seem to believe in a big-daddy-God or a big-cop-God or a big-king-God. They believe in a kind of super-person. A few believe God is another word for nature. And nature turns out to mean just about anything they happen not to understand or feel in control of.”
Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Sower
