“Iron is iron. Stone is stone. Wood is wood. Objects have an uncomplicated sense of self, so to speak. Poeple, though, and living things... their sense of self is... complicated. Mutable. It changes. People don't think of themselves as just a bag of flehs and blood and bones, even if they basically are. They think of themselves as soldiers, as kings, as wives and husbands abd children... People can convince themselves to be anything, and because of that, the scrivings you bind them with can't stay anchored. To try to bind a person is like writing in the ocean.”

“It was always a strange thing coming home. Coming home meant that you had, at one point, left it and in doing so, irreversibly changed. How odd then to be able to return to a place that would always be anchored in your notion of the past? How could this place still be there if the you that once lived there no longer existed?”

“We, the weird and the sideways folk, have always walked the line of rejection. It’s what makes us visionaries. We who are pushed away, to the edge, can see beyond the borders of reality. We frighten the privileged with our possibilities.”

“I used to think I always knew what came next. I used to think that my plans were as good as destiny, but that’s never been true. I’ve just always been determined, and lucky, and determined to be lucky. But you can’t design a future and expect it to just happen. Like art, you can only start with intent. Your hands build the rest.”
