Brian’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Hyperion (Hyperion Cantos, #1)

Hyperion (Hyperion Cantos, #1) by Dan Simmons

1 note & 1 highlight

any allegiance to a deity or concept or universal principle which put obedience above decent behavior toward an innocent human being was evil.

from Hyperion by Dan Simmons 1989

“Udinaas had known many for whom certainty was a god, the only god, no matter the cast of its features. And he had seen the manner in which such belief made the world simple, where all was divisible by the sharp cleaving of cold judgement, after which no mending was possible.”
― Steven Erikson, Midnight Tides
