I think I know why you never married, Sarah."Well, and I reckoned if I wanted something that'd come and go as he pleased, take me for granted, and ignore me when he chose, I'd get a cat. And if I wanted something I'd always have to be picking up after, getting into trouble, but slavishly devoted, I'd get a dog. Mercedes Lackey

But here steps in Satan, the eternal rebel, the first freethinker and the emancipator of worlds.

Mikhail Bakunin

Marion Zimmer Bradley quote: "What wise God would consign a man to Hell for ignorance,..."
What wise God would consign a man to Hell for ignorance, instead of teaching him better in the afterlife? Marion Zimmer Bradley
I was from birth an object of mild ridicule because of my movements - especially the perpetual flutter of my hands - and my voice. Like the voices of a number of homosexuals, this is an insinuating blend of eagerness and caution in which even such words as "hello" and "goodbye" seem not so much uttered as divulged. But these natural outward and visible signs of inward and spiritual disgrace were not enough. People could say that I was ignorant of them or was trying without success to hide... Quentin Crisp
It was not an act of treason, nor possibly even of defiance. But it was a calculated withdrawal, from the life of the Republic, from its machinery. Whatever else was being denied them out of hate, indifference to the power of their vote, loopholes, simple ignorance, this withdrawal was their own, unpublicized, private. Since they could not have withdrawn into a vacuum (could they?), there had to exist the separate, silent, unsuspected world. Thomas Pynchon
Ideal conception, necessitated by ignorance of the person so imagined, often results in an incipient love, which otherwise would never have existed. Thomas Hardy
