Alexei Panshin Quotes
There is a lesson that I learned at twelve - the world does not end at the edge of a quad. There are people outside. The world does not end on the Fourth Level. There are people elsewhere.

The universe is filled with people, and there is not a single solitary spear carrier among them.
