Ruthanna Emrys
“All of man’s other religions place him at the center of creation. But man is nothing—a fraction of the life that will walk the Earth. Earth is nothing—a tiny world that will die with its sun. The sun is one of trillions where life flowers, and wants to live, and dies. And between the suns is an endless vast darkness that dwarfs them, through which life can travel only by giving up that wanting, by losing itself. Even that darkness will eventually die. In such a universe, knowledge is the stub of a candle at dusk.” “You make it all sound so cheerful.” “It’s honest. What our religion tells us, the part that is a religion, is that the gods created life to try and make meaning. It’s ultimately hopeless, and even gods die, but the effort is real. Will always have been real, even when everything is over and no one remembers.”
Ruthanna Emrys, The Litany of Earth

Alan             Moore
“Murder, other than in the most strict forensic sense, is never soluble. That dark human clot can never melt into a lucid, clear suspension. Our detective fiction tells us otherwise: everything is just meat and cold ballistics. Provide a murderer, a motive and a means, and you have solved the crime. Using this method, the solution to the Second World War is as follows: Hitler. The German economy. Tanks. Thus, for convenience, we reduce the complex events.”
Alan Moore, From Hell

Ruthanna Emrys
“Surely one’s childhood concerns must be hard to encounter decades later, regardless of the life fallen between.”
Ruthanna Emrys, Winter Tide

Theodora Goss
“She had longed for adventure, and now that it was happening to her, she was not sure how she felt about it.”
Theodora Goss, The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter

Alan             Moore
“The one place Gods inarguably exist is in our minds where they are real beyond refute, in all their grandeur and monstrosity.”
Alan Moore, From Hell
