Rion Amilcar Scott quotes

If you take a glass bottle and toss it up into the air so that when it hits the earth it shatters against the ground, and then you take the shards and glue them back together in the shape of a bird, then you no longer have a bottle, you've made something new. Any parts of my personal history I use in my fiction are only interesting to me as the rawest of raw material that I'm shaping into the form of a bird. (Rion Amilcar Scott)
