China Mieville Quote
If the fucking Scar exists, whispered the Brucolac, still without turning, and if they get us there and by some gods-fucked miracle we survive, then they’ll still destroy us. We are not an expeditionary force; we are not on some fucking quest. This is a city, Uther. We live; we buy; we sell; we steal; we trade. We are a port. This is not about adventures. He turned and faced Uther Doul with his eyes caustic. You know that. That’s why you came here, dammit, Uther. Because you were sick of adventures.
