Book cover for Ormeshadow
“She’s a fierce beauty. Her scales are burnished copper, worn green at the edges. Her nostrils are darkened by fire. On her forehead the copper becomes a crown of bronze and gold. The Orme’s belly and flanks are a lighter colour, the scales ...more

Andy Weir
“Yes, of course duct tape works in a near-vacuum. Duct tape works anywhere. Duct tape is magic and should be worshiped.”
Andy Weir, The Martian

Margaret Atwood
“I admired my mother in some ways, although things between us were never easy. She expected too much from me, I felt. She expected me to vindicate her life for her, and the choices she'd made. I didn't want to live my life on her terms. I didn't want to be the model offspring, the incarnation of her ideas. We used to fight about that. I am not your justification for existence, I said to her once.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid's Tale

Carol Rifka Brunt
“I knew the way lost hopes could be dangerous, how they could turn a person into someone they never thought they'd be.”
Carol Rifka Brunt, Tell the Wolves I'm Home

Barack Obama
“If we won, it would mean that I wasn’t alone in believing that the world didn’t have to be a cold, unforgiving place, where the strong preyed on the weak and we inevitably fell back into clans and tribes, lashing out against the unknown and huddling against the darkness.”
Barack Obama, A Promised Land

“Beyond the East the sunrise, beyond the West the sea,
And East and West the wanderlust that will not let me be;
It works in me like madness, dear, to bid me say good-by!
For the seas call and the stars call, and oh, the call of the sky!

I know not where the white road runs, nor what the blue hills are,
But man can have the sun for friend, and for his guide a star;
And there's no end of voyaging when once the voice is heard,
For the river calls and the road calls, and oh, the call of a bird!

Yonder the long horizon lies, and there by night and day
The old ships draw to home again, the young ships sail away;
And come I may, but go I must, and if men ask you why,
You may put the blame on the stars and the sun and the white road and the sky!”
Gerald Gould
