Status Updates From The Crossing

“You do not know what things you set in motion. No man can know. No prophet foresee. The consequences of an act are often quite different from what one would guess. You must be sure the intention in your heart is large enough to contain all wrong turnings, all disappointments. Do you see? Not everything has such value.”

Weird book.

“Things separate from their stories have no meaning. They are only shapes. Of a certain size and color. A certain weight. When their meaning has become lost to us they no longer even have a name. The story on the other hand can never be lost from its place in the world for it is that place. And like all tales it ultimately told one story only, for there is only one to tell.”
