Quotes

• “His foot always got caught in that wide, loose stirrup: his mouth.”
• ““The True Word. Once every quarter, once every new-style month, I preach it.”“The True Word on what? Everybody’s got his own true word, you know.”“On how not to die, woman. The basis of every religion.”“No,” Zoe said. Not every one of them; just the ones that don’t know exactly what to do with the here-and-now.””
• “Tiglathpileser was a human, it’s rumored. And Caligula. So were a whole host of twentieth-century tyrants. So presumably were the brain-dead idiots who turned the Earth into a treeless detention camp. Being human, I’m afraid, doesn’t automatically confer demigod status on anyone.”
• “What was reprehensible in being fearful in the presence of the unknown?”
• “God could hardly damn me for a coward, great cosmic exemplar of laissez-faire that he is.”
• “I have thought a little about a telepathic community, and I have decided that it would most likely create either a thoroughly paranoiac or a thoroughly homogeneous unit of individuals. Complete suspicion and hostility in the one instance, total harmony and concord in the other. I do not like either alternative.”
