    Ken McClure
    “Sorry, I thought I saw a guilt trip looming up,’ said Clements. ‘I had a Catholic upbringing - spent a week in a monastery once. My mother – a devout woman all her days, God bless her – thought it would do me good to be exposed to truly good people who had denied themselves everything to follow God.’ Clements snorted and turned to look out of the car window.

    ‘I take it, it didn’t work?’

    ‘I don’t think there was a single one of them – apart from maybe a little Irishman, who had never known anything else - who wasn’t on some kind of guilt trip. They hadn’t given up anything at all: they were running away from things; hiding; the lot of them; and mainly from their real selves. Show me a monk and I’ll show you one screwed-up individual with a past.”
    Ken McClure, Past Lives

    “The Empty Door

    I will meet you,
    At the empty door,
    Enter the atrium,
    Of dreams once bold,
    Regrets untold,
    Walk the corridor,
    Of restlessness,
    Bathe in the pool,
    Of forgetfulness,
    And in the grand salon,
    Where the threads of life,
    Now grey,
    Fray in the dying light,
    Share verses,
    Forged by the night.”
    Ian Thomas Shaw

    Fernando Pessoa
    “I've always been an ironic dreamer, unfaithful to my inner promises.
    Like a complete outsider, a casual observer of whom I thought I was,
    I've always enjoyed watching my daydreams go down in defeat.
    I was never convinced of what I believed in.
    I filled my hands with sand, called it gold, and opened them up to let it slide through.
    Words were my only truth.
    When the right words were said, all was done; the rest was the sand that had always been.”
    Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

    Patricia A. McKillip
    “What do you think love is- a thing to startle from the heart like a bird at every shout or blow? You can fly from me, high as you choose into your darkness, but you will see me always beneath you, no matter how far away, with my face turned to you. My heart is in your heart. I gave it to you with my name that night and you are its guardian, to treasure it, or let it whither and die. I do not understand you. I am angry with you. I am hurt and helpless, but nothing will fill the ache of the hollowness in me where your name would echo if I lost you.”
    Patricia A. McKillip, The Forgotten Beasts of Eld

    Octavia E. Butler
    “The child in each of us
    Knows paradise.
    Paradise is home.
    Home as it was
    Or home as it should have been.

    Paradise is one's own place,
    One's own people,
    One's own world,
    Knowing and known,
    Perhaps even
    Loving and loved.

    Yet every child
    Is cast from paradise-
    Into growth and new community,
    Into vast, ongoing
    Change.”
    Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Sower
