Alastair Reynolds Quotes

As Her Psychosis Took Hold She Moved Deeper And Deeper Into The House, Putting As Much Distance As Possible Between Herself And The Outside World. This Became Her World. To Begin With It Was Just A Few Rooms. Then It Contracted Down To Just This One, And Then To Just This Tank. Even That Wasn't Enough. She Constructed Barriers To Fool And Delay The Ghosts. Corridors That Don't Lead Anywhere, Or Which Spiral Back On Themselves. Hidden Stairways That They Won't See. Mirrors Everywhere, To Baffle And Confuse Her Tormentors. Doors That Open Onto Walls. Of Course, Even That Isn't Sufficient By Itself. The Ghosts Are Clever And Resourceful, And They'll Keep Trying To Find A Way In. That's Why The House Has To Keep Changing, So That They Never Get Used To One Particular Configuration.
