“The eye is always half-full.”
Arthur Slade, Jolted: Newton Starker's Rules for Survival

“He had hours of paperwork ahead of him. All this paper would one day be the downfall of the Empire.”
Arthur Slade, The Dark Deeps

“Sky was the first god. Robert knew that there was only one God and he had a Son who was also God, but there were gods who had vanished: the gods of thunder, of fire, of the wide oceans of the earth.”
Arthur Slade, Dust

“The eye is always half-full.”
Arthur Slade, Jolted: Newton Starker's Rules for Survival

“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

Lincoln Hi Slade!

I don't get to Goodreads nearly as often as I'd like because I'm writing my 4th book. So, I wanted to make sure and stop by and let you know that I am thrilled to be your friend here! Are you on twitter? My twitter name is: linc0lnpark

Have a fantastic day!
