OSC characters have some bitchin' quotes.
"The most unpleasant thing about human beings is that they don't metamorphose. Your people and mine are born as grubs, but we transform ourselves into a higher form before we produce. Human beings remain grubs all their lives."
"Human beings do metamorphose. They change their identity constantly. However, each new identity thrives on the delusion that it was always in possession of the body it has just conquered."
-Exchange between Rooter and the Hive Queen, 'Xenocide', Orson Scott Card
Things never really turn out like we think they're going to. That's probably good. The life I now lead is far better than the one I imagined for myself. Far more fulfilling, at any rate. 'Better' is so subjective.
