Quotations

1. From the prologue of The Quickening Maze: "He started to think that the sun was shining in a new quarter of the sky. He felt no fear yet: the sun lit wonders in a new zone that held him in steady rapt amazement. He did wonder, though, why the old world had not come to an end, why the horizon was no closer." (The relevance of this quote to the 21st century is that we all stand mesmerized by what the future may bring, but the closer we get to realizing our dreams, the farther away they seem).

2. From The Broken Word: "He could see people posting themselves, third class, into the train windows or dropping carefully onto wide, unfeeling feet" (The relevance of this quote to the 21st century is that the daily grind has beaten many people down into feeling like third class objects).


3. From The Quickening Maze "Even the church, rising over the wood, the church he'd seen very day as soon as he could see at all, looked counterfeit" (The relevance of this quote to the 21st century is that religion has become increasingly fake and disingenuous over the years -- almost counterfeit).
