Random quote: "Like the wind crying endlessly through the universe, Time carries away the names and the deeds of conquerors and commoners alike. And all that we are, all that remains, is in the memories of those who cared we came this way for a brief moment." - Harlan Ellison (Paladin of the Lost Hour)

I love her. Her conversations with Margaret Atwood where Atwood tries to wriggle away from being labelled an SF author and Le Guin pins her with common sense are most amusing.
