“What he wanted was to live in a timeless castle, a world wrought of old gold, where everything was noble and glorious and nothing ever changed. He wanted the battle to be over, he wanted to win and have won and be done with fighting forever and ever. But of course it wasn’t over. Why would the future be simpler than the past?

But there was no one there to say it. God would never say stop. And so Arthur never would.”
Lev Grossman, The Bright Sword

Lev Grossman
“He looked up at the empty clouds, and as he died he wondered, not for the first time but for the very last, why it should be that we are made for a bright world, but live in a dark one.”
Lev Grossman, The Bright Sword
