Jack Vance Quotes

The Brinktown Jail Is One Of The Most Ingenious Ever Propounded By Civic Authorities. It Must Be Remembered That Brinktown Occupies The Surface Of A Volcanic Butte, Overlooking A Trackless Jungle Of Quagmire, Thorn, Eel-vine Skiver Tussock. A Single Road Leads From City Down To Jungle; The Prisoner Is Merely Locked Out Of The City. Escape Is At His Option; He May Flee As Far Through The Jungle As He Sees Fit: The Entire Continent Is At His Disposal. But No Prisoner Ever Ventures Far From The Gate; And, When His Presence Is Required, It Is Only Necessary To Unlock The Gate And Call His Name.
