Quotes
- “The Feast of Birds is dedicated to Avalei, the Goddess of Love and Death, of whom my master had said: “Not all that is ancient is worthy of praise.””
- “Words are sublime, and in books we may commune with the dead. Beyond this there is nothing true, no voices we can hear.”
- “The truth has its own virtue, which is separate from its content.”
- “Someone tell me why my roadis eternally strewn with ashes.”
