Writing a person's life story fosters acceptance of their prior personal failures and serves to open a doorway to living modestly and harmoniously."

Otherwise you just might have broken that poor girl's heart."

It's she who should take care, for when she strikes, my heart will make a sound so beautiful and bright that it can't help but bring her back to me in winged light."

"Hespe's mouth went firm. She didn't scowl exactly, but it looked like she was getting all the pieces of a scowl together in one place, just in case she needed them in a hurry."
