Joining the Exodus

After many years, I've finally reached my limit on what I can put up with by way of terms of service. This journal is on its way to dreamwidth, where I also go by the name of dancinghorse. Once the import is complete, I will be shutting down.

Quotes by Judith Tarr

“I don’t cry for humans. I cry for things that are so beautiful I just can’t stand it, like Bonnie in front of me, all crusty from rolling in the sand, with a mouthful of half-chewed hay and eyes that knew everything I’d ever thought or felt or been.”
― Judith Tarr, Living in Threes

“My arithmetic is fine, thank you," Nicole snapped. Her arithmetic from what she'd seen was a damn sight better than that of any local without a counting board in front of him. The Romans, naturally enough, used and thought in terms of Roman numerals, and Roman numerals were to arithmetic what cruel and unusual punishment was to jurisprudence.”
― Judith Tarr, Household Gods
