“I have a recurring fantasy that one more article has been added to the Bill of Rights: the right to free access to imagination. I have come to believe that genuine democracy cannot exist without the freedom to imagine and the right to use imaginative works without any restrictions.

How else do we know that we have existed, felt, desired, hated, feared?”

“All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt.”
― Charles M. Schulz

“Not only had he lost the only girl he'd ever loved, he'd lost her in duplicate, like some heartbroken but highly efficient civil servant.”
― Tom Holt, Falling Sideways
