And now, an excerpt from Terry Pratchett:
"Life in this world," Didactylos said, "is, as it were, a sojourn in a cave. What can we know of reality? For all we see of the true nature of existence is, shall we say, no more than bewildering and amusing shadows cast upon the inner wall of the cave by the unseen blinding light of absolute truth, from which we may or may not deduce some glimmer of veracity, and we as troglodyte seekers of wisdom can only lift our voices to the unseen and say, humbly, 'Go on, do Deformed Rabbit. . . it's my favorite.' "
This excerpt has been brought to you courtesty of writing 1,500 words a day (and the attendent procrastination).

Oh yay for Terry Pratchett. My new hero. :D Just read and reread Night Watch. Now on to Thud! (because it's what my library's got).
*hugs*
Yay for writing words, even if it's like pulling teeth. Maybe someday I'll do it too.
