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 |

I'm just back from a wonderful holiday in the Western Highlands, and I want to write all about it, but first I'm going to crosspost something about Dreamwidth. I'm there under the same username as I am here. At the moment, it's looking like I'll be migrating there as much as possible, but continuing to cross-post some/many things to LJ. I'm strongly considering disabling comments on the post copies here on LJ, to make sure that conversations don't get split. Since I've imported my friendslist, OpenID means that all my LJ friends who don't do DW can read & comment there (including the appropriate locked and filtered posts) under their LJ identities. Do people have any opinions on that? (I've actually done that on this entry, to use as a test - the corresponding Dreamwidth post is here.) My paid account time on LJ runs out on the 4th of August, so when that rolls around I'll either be re-upping here or switching to a paid account on DW - that will give me plenty of time to decide, and I still have poll capability here if not useful iconage.
