Quote:
Life isn’t just one thing. As you get older, especially—and I don’t mean old as I am now—nothing just has one story, one truth. If I said I’d never been happier than I was when the kids were young, I wouldn’t be lying. But if I told you that I hated them, and thought of this house as a prison, that would be close to the truth as well.
-- Ian R. MacLeod, Song of Time (2008)
