Quotes

  • That’s almost like the daft things you believe when you’re really little, like I use to believe I could fly. I believed it for years, but it had to be kept secret. I knew if I ever told anyone or showed it off to anyone, I’d lose the power. And if I doubted it, and tried it out just to see, I’d lose the power — so I didn’t. I believed in it. I knew I would be able to fly when there really was a need. Which, fortunately for me, there never was.
  • But naturally people fussed and objected like they always do when someone tries to do something positive.
  • Every other method of resolving this difference of opinion has failed. We are reduced to violence, which is the last resort.
  • “If you opt out, you don’t change anything.”“Why should I run round helping to get power for a group of idiots who’ll end up just as dangerous as the ones already in power?”You really don’t think anyone can make things better?”“No. What’s going to happen will happen.”
  • “Frankly Jess, on the grand scale—”“You can’t think on the grand scale. You have to think on the small scale. Otherwise no-one’d ever do anything.”
