"We are wise women," Abuela liked to say. "Not because we are wise, but because we seek wisdom." - Charles de Lint

I love this world … That is what rules my life. When I die, I want to have done all in my power to leave it in a better state than it was in when I found it. At the same time I know that this can never be. The world has grown so complex that one voice can do little to alter it any longer. That doesn't stop me from doing what I can but it makes the task hard. The successes are so small, the failures so large and many. It's like trying to stem a storm with one's bare hands.

There are people who take the heart out of you, and there are people who put it back.

The fey wonders of the world only exist while there are those with the sight to see them.
