Words of Wisdom: Remember
“Remember the quiet wonders. The world has more need of them than it has for warriors.”
- Charles de Lint, Moonheart
Notes:
Charles de Lint (born 1951) is a Canadian writer of Dutch, Japanese and Spanish origins. Primarily an author of fantasy fiction, he has written widely in the subgenres of urban fantasy, contemporary magical realism and mythic fiction. An early book from this writer, Moonheart, launches a series that will sweep the reader from ancient, misty Wales to the streets of contemporary Ottawa.
[Image: The Angel of the Birds (1910) oil on canvas by Czech painter František Dvořák (1862-1927)(born Bruner, also known as Franz Dvorak or Franz Bruner). This luminous painting reveals the diverse influences of the Pre-Raphaelites, Aesthetic Movement, and fairy painting—in addition to the artist’s interest in nature and the imaginary. Here we see diverse birds, their individual characteristics carefully depicted, surrounding the central, angelic figure. In a private collection. Public domain.]
