“No good. No way out. Orr was where he had been for months - alone: knowing he was insane and knowing he was not insane, simultaneously and intensely. It was enough to drive him insane.”
― Ursula K. Le Guin, (The Lathe Of Heaven (S.F. MASTERWORKS)) [By: Ursula K. Le Guin] [Aug, 2001]

“Philosophy cannot be taught; it is the application of the sciences to truth.”
― Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo

“It is a terrible thing, this kindess that human beings do not lose. Terrible, because when we are finally naked in the dark and cold, it is all we have. We who are so rich, so full of strength, we end up with that small change. We have nothing else to give. ”
― Ursula K. Le Guin, The Left Hand of Darkness

“Sometimes a god comes," Selver said. "He brings a new way to do a thing, or a new thing to be done. A new kind of singing, or a new kind of death. He brings this across the bridge between the dream-time and the world-time. When he has done this, it is done. You cannot take things that exist in the world and try to drive them back into the dream, to hold them inside the dream with walls and pretenses. That is insanity. What is, is. There is no use pretending, now, that we do not know how to kill one another.”
― Ursula K. Le Guin, The Word for World Is Forest
