"Easy reading is damn hard writing." - Nathanial Hawthorne

Soooo fucking true. I remember this every time I edit my replies.
 
"Do you know what I remember? When [my father] read to me. Stupid things, dragons and heroes. He wouldn't turn a page until I reached over and took his hand. That big man made every step of the story my choice. I loved that. He died of the wasting, in a Denerim ward. Those last weeks I read to him. I had to take his hand to turn the pages. And I couldn't tell if he was too weak, or if it was the old game…No one tells you how to mourn. And when someone says, "move on", you take their hand and say "my choice."
Aveline Valen, Dragon Age II
