Stephen R. Donaldson Quote

I’m not alive. She heard fury climbing to the top of his voice. I’m a leper. Outcast unclean. Lepers are ugly and filthy. And abominable. His words filled her with horror and protest. How can it be? she moaned. You are not—abominable. What world is it that dares treat you so?
