"It is always man's ideas which drive his actions. This has, at times, resulted in great evil; but as we look around us, we cannot doubt that it has resulted in greater good."
- Steven Brust

"Every once in while, a person will do something obvious and direct that is no more than it appears to be. I think they do it to throw you off."
