I don’t write stories to tell readers what to think, or even tell them what I think; I write stories to show me what I think. Writing is always a journey of discovery that way, as suspenseful for me as I hope it will be for the audience. <br class="br">интервью 2010 года «Geek Speak Magazine» <br class="br">Источник: интервью «Geek Speak Magazine» на сайте журнала http://www.geekspeakmagazine.com/archive/issue9/features/inspiration_is_everywhere.htm

Vorkosigan Saga, Barrayar (1991)
Источник: Cordelia's Honor
Контексте: Welcome to Barrayar, son. Here you go: have a world of wealth and poverty, wrenching change and rooted history. Have a birth; have two. Have a name. Miles means "soldier," but don't let the power of suggestion overwhelm you. Have a twisted form in a society that loathes and fears the mutations that have been its deepest agony. Have a title, wealth, power, and all the hatred and envy they will draw. Have your body ripped apart and re-arranged. Inherit an array of friends and enemies you never made. Have a grandfather from hell. Endure pain, find joy, and make your own meaning, because the universe certainly isn't going to supply it. Always be a moving target. Live. Live. Live.
