"Lancelot: Morgaine, Morgaine - kinswoman, I have never seen you weep. Morgaine: Are you like so many men, afraid of a woman's tears? (...) Lancelot: No (...) it makes them seem so much more real, so much more vulnerable - women who never weep frighten me, because I know they are stronger than I, and I am always a little afraid of what they will do."

-- Marion Zimmer Bradley

The painter who knows his own craft and nothing else will turn out to be a very superficial artist.”
“In some ways I'm very structured.”
