Epigraph
The universe begins to look more like a great thought than like a great machine.
--Sir James Jeans

Nature contains that which has no intention of taking us into its confidence.
--Loren Eiseley

The future e... (show all)nters into us, in order to transform itself in us, long before it happens.
--Rainer Maria Rilke
First words
Late gray afternoon with a fierce wind whipping down the loch, driving spots of rain against the windshield - no, windscreen it is in Scotland.
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)I was seeing the ruin of stones in the hills and Deirdre walking with her easy stride down among the black Angus, and heard her singing to herself that Gaelic song in a minor key that, even so, was not sad.
