Additional quotes by Anne McCaffrey

How much can a dragon carry?
As much as it thinks it can

A real scientist solves problems, not wails that they are unsolvable.

Harper, your song has a sorrowful sound,
Though the tune was written as gay.
Your voice is sad and your hands are slow
And your eye meeting mine turns away.

Drummer, beat, and piper, blow, Harper, strike, and soldier, go. Free the flame and sear the grasses Till the dawning Red Star passes. - Anne McCaffrey
