Who Needs Gods Anyway?

One of my personal tradition every Halloween season is to read Roger Zelazny’s book A Night In the Lonesome October, one chapter per day. The book, like all of Roger Zelazny’s writings, is a terrific book and I always find something new every time I read through it. I felt like sharing this quote with readers: We made our way cross-country through the colors of autumn browns, reds, yellows and…

Roger Zelazny fascinated me in my youth. He was obsessed with immortality and godlike powers. What every teen boy wants, right?

It's Just There

I used to be an avid Dune reader in my younger years, and posted quotes from it all the time in earlier iterations of the blog. Anyhow, I found this quote from the third book: The universe is just there; that’s the only way a Fedaykin can view it and remain the master of his senses. The universe neither threatens nor promises. It holds things beyond our sway: the fall of a meteor, the eruption…

"I see. And you believe it wants to kill you for this?"

"Wouldn't you?" he said. "If you had started out as a thing, and we had turned you into a person, and then used you as a thing again, wouldn't you?"
