Iain M. Banks Quotes

Promises Take Many Shapes, And The More ... Momentous They Are, The More They Might Look Like Threats. All Great Promises Are Threats, I Suppose, To The Way Things Have Been Until That Point, To Some Aspect Of Our Lives, And We All Suddenly Become Conservative, Even Though We Want And Need What The Promise Holds, And Look Forward To The Promised Change At The Same Time.
