3. Your favorite quote
I do very much like and have an awesome print of 'You could never get a cup of tea large enough, or a book long enough, to suit me' from C. S. Lewis. My favourite though, which I also have a gorgeous print of (one of those truly spectacular drunken online purchases that the internet enables me with):
"Listen: there's a hell
of a good universe next door; let's go"
It is from a poem by e. e. cummings, pity this busy monster, manunkind.
I love that the poem itself is so cynical and plays with the arrogance of humans and suggests giving up on them all together - because lord do I have that feeling a hell of a lot. And at the same time the quote taken out of context describes so perfectly my favourite sort of fiction, my favourite sort of fantasy, my gaps in drystone walls and Kings Cross and half-open wardrobe doors.
