The Talman, Koda Itheda
May. 6th, 2003 01:43 pmYes, perhaps it's corny, but it's also wisdom. From Barry Longyear's The Talman:
"There will come to you at times a blinding vision that fills your eyes and mind, announcing itself as Truth. Step back and strike down this vision and beat it as though it were a brain-sucking monster."
"Then, with it lying there limp, bent, and tarnished, if it still claims to be Truth, accept it with great caution, remembering that the most dangerous lies arrive in the most highly polished armor."
