Walk any path in Destiny's garden, and you will be forced to choose, not once but many times.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Nothing’s changed. You’ll go home. You’ll be bored. You’ll be ignored. No one will listen to you, really listen to you. You’re too clever and too quiet for them to understand. They don’t even get your name right.

A short story is the ultimate close-up magic trick -- a couple of thousand words to take you around the universe or break your heart.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Richard opened his hand, and the key stared up at him from his palm. By my crooked teeth, asked Richard, remembering, who am I?

I thought I was your destination. Looks like I was just another stop on the line.

Agnes was the worst prophet that's ever existed. Because she was always right. That's why the book never sold.

Are we human because we gaze at the stars or do we gaze at the stars because we are human?
