“I have no liking for prisons, Master Li. Sometimes I suspect that we build our traps ourselves, then we back into them, pretending amazement the while. That this is the way of life, from the All-Highest down to the meanest creature in creation...
But whether this is the case or no, it is still a worthy thing to open cages. It is still a virtuous act to free the imprisoned.
Tools of course, can be the subtlest of traps. One day, I know, I must smash the emerald.”
― Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 10: The Wake
