The essence of training is to allow error without consequence.
Orson Scott Card
If anyone have intercourse with a pig or a dog, he shall die. If a man have intercourse with a horse or a mule, there is no punishment. But he shall not approach the king, and shall not become a priest... If a pig spring upon a man for intercourse, there is no punishment.

Orson Scott Card
So you love me, said Petra softly when the kiss ended. I'm a raging mass of hormones thet I'm too young to understand, said Bean. You're a female of a closely related species. According to all the best primatologists, I really have no choice. That's nice, she said.
Orson Scott Card
I always tell the truth about what I’m selling, and then nobody buys it.
Orson Scott Card
I'm right here. This is who I really am. I'm not pretending.
Orson Scott Card
Maybe we're the fools, for thinking we know things. Maybe humans are the only ones who can deal with the fact that nothing can ever be known at all.
Orson Scott Card
I'm not stupid! In Bean's experience, that was a sentence never uttered except to prove its own inaccuracy.
Orson Scott Card
Folks always seemed to think that as long as they didn't know about something bad, it wasn't happening, so whoever told them actually caused it to be true.
Orson Scott Card
Sickness and healing are in every heart death and deliverance in every hand.
Orson Scott Card
Regardless of law, marriage has only one definition, and any government that attempts to change it is my mortal enemy. I will act to destroy that government and bring it down.
Orson Scott Card
One judge is coughing his life out into bloody handkerchiefs and the other is burying his wife, and you think this is how God answers your prayers?
