Wisdom never learned silence, and it is most annoying when least wanted. - Patricia A. McKillip

Imagination is the golden-eyed monster that never sleeps. It must be fed; it cannot be ignored.

When you put your hands and mind and heart into the knowing of a thing ... there is no room in you for fear.

At its best, fantasy rewards the reader with a sense of wonder about what lies within the heart of the commonplace world. The greatest tales are told over and over, in many ways, through centuries. Fantasy changes with the changing times, and yet it is still the oldest kind of tale in the world, for it began once upon a time, and we haven't heard the end of it yet.
