'All right,' said Susan. 'I'm not stupid. You're saying humans need . . . fantasies to make life bearable.'

REALLY? AS IF IT WAS SOME KIND OF PINK PILL? NO. HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN. TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE.

-Terry Pratchett, The Hogfather.


'You make us sound mad,' said Susan.

NO. YOU NEED TO BELIEVE IN THINGS THAT AREN'T TRUE. HOW ELSE CAN THEY BECOME?

Good stuff.

I think Monkey would like you, but you'd have to play with him for a bit to be sure.

Ooh, thank you, that's a useful site!

I've just picked what I'm going to wear. Are Monsters allowed corsetry? ;)

Are you on msn? I want to LARP babble at someone.

I have got a CD for you. And some Goth clothes, but that's not really exciting, 'cause they were yours to begin with.
