limits regards starting
Yes, limits can be self-imposed. But, as regards space, especially, they're starting to dwindle. It can be the same way for people.
technology wizards wells
Well, the rollout of new technology always affects how wizards do business.
stars may would-be
I may have one more 'Star Trek' novel in me, but it would be in the old universe, not the new one.
children passion only-child
My first generation of young readers now have not only children, but some of them have grandchildren to whom they're introducing their old passion.
children world generations
It's always been the children who have saved the universe from the previous generation and remade the world in their own image. ---Carl
song ocean long-ago
Blood in the water I sing, and one who shed it: deadliest hunger I sing, and one who fed it- weaving the ancient-most tale of the Sea's sending: singing the tragedy, singing the joy unending This is our shame- this is the whole Ocean's glory: this is the Song of the Twelve. Hark to the story! Hearken, and bring it to pass: swift lest the sorrow long ago laid to it's rest devour us tomarrow!

air voice clothes
But the trouble with sainthood these days is the robe-and-halo imagery that gets stuck onto it." Carl got that brooding look again. "People forget that robes were street clothes once... and still are, in a lot of places. And halos are to that fierce air of innocence what speech balloons in comics are to the sound of the voice itself. Shorthand. But most people just see an old symbol and don't bother looking behind it for the meaning. Sainthood starts to look old-fashioned, unattainable... even repellent. Actually, you can see it all around, once you learn to spot it.
world kind poor
It’d be a poor kind of world where there was just one explanation for things. ---Rhiow
