Commonplace Book

'"...I know you think Lily's no judge of character. But it isn't the only capacity worth anything in life."

But Zoe looked down dully. "She's not alone in that. But it is the only capacity worth anything." Almost desperately, she looked up. "It is. It is. It's sanity. It's being sane. There may be better things than seeing dead straight, but not many from where I stand. Because if you don't, you're dangerous."

"Or in danger, or both."'

from In Certain Circles by Elizabeth Harrower (Part Three)
