“I wrote this story for you, but when I began it I had not realized that girls grow quicker than books. As a result you are already too old for fairy tales, and by the time it is printed and bound you will be older still. But some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again. You can then take it down from some upper shelf, dust it, and tell me what you think of it. I shall probably be too deaf to hear, and too old to understand a word you say, but I shall still be your affectionate Godfather, C. S. Lewis.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

“Arkimaailmasta puuttuvien asioiden kuvittelu on hyve, ei pahe. Fantasia (tässä mielessä) ei mielestäni ole alempi vaan ylempi taiteen muoto, itse asiassa se on lähinnä puhdasta muotoa ja siten kaikkein mahtavin”
― J. R. R. Tolkien, TREE AND LEAF

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
