Stephen R. Donaldson Quotes
Ah, Deserve," Sighed Kindwind. "The Notion Of Deserved And Undeserved Is A Fancy. Knowing Both Life And Death, We Endeavor To Impose Worth And Meaning Upon Our Deeds, And Thereby To Comfort Our Fear Of Impermanence. We Choose To Imagine That Our Lives Merit Continuance. Mayhap All Sentience Shares A Similar Fancy. Mayhap The Earth Itself, Being Sentient In Its Fashion, Shares It. Nonetheless It Is A Fancy. A Wider Gaze Does Not Regard Us In That Wise. The Stars Do Not. Perhaps The Creator Does Not. The Larger Truth Is Merely That All Things End. By That Measure, Our Fancies Cannot Be Distinguished From Dust. "For This Reason, Giants Love Tales. Our Iteration Of Past Deeds And Desires And Discoveries Provides The Only Form Of Permanence To Which Mortal Life Can Aspire. That Such Permanence Is A Chimera Does Not Lessen Its Power To Console. Joy Is In The Ears That Hear.
