House of Chains -- Chapter 22
"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"
―Gene Wolfe, The Citadel of the Autarch

lol. It's funny in Minnesota everyone wants to spell my name Holter even though halter is a perfectly fine word. When we were in Jamaica last month everyone wanted to spell it Helter.
In both cases when I spell it for them the reaction is always, "Oh, like it sounds." At which point my reaction is to usually want to: . But I almost always just smile and say yes.
