“Fate laughs at men’s schemes.”
― The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate
― The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate
“He offered an explanation, speaking of his search for tiny pores in the skin of reality, like the holes that worms bore into wood, and how upon finding one he was able to expand and stretch it the way a glassblower turns a dollop of molten glass into a long-necked pipe, and how he then allowed time to flow like water at one mouth while causing it to thicken like syrup at the other.”
― The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate
