Ursula K. Le Guin said this quote

“ This was a great magic. Festin had no more performed it than has any man who in exile or danger longs for the earth and waters of his home, seeing and yearning over the doorsill of his house, the table where he has eaten, the branches outside the window of the room where he has slept. Only in dreams do any but the great Mages realize this magic of going home. ”

Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.

I had forgotten how much light there is in the world, till you gave it back to me.

~ Ursula K. Le Guin

Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward towards the light; but the laden traveler may never reach the end of it.

~ Ursula K. Le Guin

To oppose something is to maintain it... You must go somewhere else, you must have another goal, then you walk a different road.

~ Ursula K. Le Guin
