about this journal
It's not the principles that kill you in the end, it's the books. - Michael Swanwick, The Iron Dragon's Daughter

What we cannot speak about we must pass over in silence. - Wittgenstein

Never express yourself more clearly than you think. - Niels Bohr

A labyrinthian man never looks for the truth, but only for his Ariadne. - Nietzsche

What else do you do with dark and sinister forces but play with them? - Deadlock, Khronicles of Khaos

There are three things that are real: God, human folly, and laughter. Since the first two pass our comprehension, we must do what we can with the third. - Valmiki, the Ramayana

If you want to tell the untold stories, if you want to give voice to the voiceless, you've got to find a language. Which goes for film as well as prose, for documentary as well as autobiography. Use the wrong language and you're dumb and blind. - Salman Rushdie

Even the oldest stories are new to somebody. - Neil Gaiman, The Kindly Ones

Perhaps Kafka laughed when he told stories... because one isn't always equal to oneself. - Primo Levi

When you set out for Ithaca, ask that your way be long. - Constantine Cavafy

"You can't do that", she said. "You can't have 'fairy tales' without 'fair'! And stuff you find out by determining what words are inside other words is never wrong. Now drink more tea." - Hitherby Dragons

This is a public service announcement, inspired by a discussion with [info]nou about why some posts and indeed some posters garnered more attention than others.

I like comments, including ones that go off on a rambling tangent and start conversations with each other. Comments on the subject matter of the post are especially welcomed, but as far as I know they're still not rationing space here.

If nobody comments, I have no idea whether anyone read it or not. If I have evidence that people read it and enjoyed it, I will most likely post more of it. If I'm feeling nice, I'll even do requests. Alternatively, if you dislike my rambling and wish I'd just delete the journal entirely, please say so and I shall take the appropriate steps1.




1. Please don't forget to leave your full address and postcode when you do.

Then put this in your LiveJournal and I'll do the same for you.
