A real feast of thought and emotion here. RTC…

Very cool book—and offering far more than its title indicates.

“Maybe the cynics are right, and love is only ever an illusion. But maybe it’s the sacred kind of illusion, like the shimmering blue gods who appear to shepherd children. It has power, if only because we believe it does. And that’s enough.” p. 126

An interesting read, quite deep and thoughtful.

Hey, can somebody please get all the knives out of the kitchen for me? Some of this shit is deeeeeee-pressing!
