| 547b0e4 | But stories don't end. They continue as long as you're alive. You just have to get on with things.

| d1019c5 | She was so warm, her drenched clothes had almost dried. Her eyes were rolled back in her head. She started muttering, and I could've sworn she said, "Dung balls. Time to roll the dung balls." It might've been funny--except for the fact that she was dying. "That's Khepri talking," Setne explained. "He's the divine dung beetle, rolling the sun across the sky."

| 0b4a58d | another tradition to politics, a tradition (of politics) that stretched from the days of the country's founding to the glory of the civil rights movement, a tradition based on the simple idea that we have a stake in one another, and that what binds us together is greater than what drives us apart, and that if enough people believe in the truth of that proposition and act on it, then we might not solve every problem, but we can get something.. | Barack Obama | ||
| 4a40d8e | I WANT her though, to take the same from me. She touches me as if I were herself, her own. She has not realized yet, that fearful thing, that I am the other, she thinks we are all of one piece. It is painfully untrue.

It has this tremendously powerful life force, a bunch of long, undulating legs, and it's heading somewhere, moving through the darkness of the ocean...
