“But the sawhorse never says much. He told me once that he can’t talk and think at the same time, so he prefers to think”.”

“By early summer the flats were almost completed, and I knew I would soon be out of a job. There was no prospect of another, but I wasn’t worried; I never felt so beefily strong in my life. I remember standing one morning on the windy roof-top, and looking round at the racing sky, and suddenly realizing that once the job was finished I could go anywhere I liked in the world.
There was nothing to stop me, I would be penniless, free, and could just pack up and walk away. I was a young man whose time coincided with the last years of peace, and so was perhaps luckier than any generation since. Europe at least was wide open, a place of casual frontiers, few questions and almost no travellers.”
― Laurie Lee, As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning

“Because the Nome King intends to do evil is no excuse for my doing the same,”
― L. Frank Baum, The Emerald City of Oz
