Steven Erikson Quotes
Many Children, Early On, Acquire A Love Of Places They Have Never Been. Often, Such Wonder Is Summarily Crushed On The Crawl Through The Sludge Of Murky, Confused Adolescence On To The Flat, Cracked Pan Of Adulthood With Its Airless Vistas Ever Lurking Beyond The Horizon. Oh, Well, Sometimes Such Gifts Of Curiosity, Delight And Adventure Do Indeed Survive The Stationary Trek, Said Victims Ending Up As Artists, Scholars, Inventors And Other Criminals Bent On Confounding The Commonplace And The Platitudes Of Peaceful Living. But Never Mind Them For Now, Since, For All Their Flailing Subversions, Nothing Really Ever Changes Unless In Service To Convenience.
