Orson Scott Card Quote
I want to see the king, I said, after explaining who I was.Wonderful, said the ancient Nkumai who sat on a cushion near the corner pole of the house. I'm glad for you.That was all, and apparently he meant to say no more. Why are you so glad? I asked.Because it's good for every human being to have an unfulfilled wish. It makes all of life so poignant.
