He may not have had time, but even allowing him the time, Vergil simply did not think such things through. Brilliant in the creation, slovenly in the consideration of consequences.
More quotes by Greg Bear

It was in the blood, the flesh,
And now it is forever.
Around her gulps of water, she repeated her prayer, until the monotony and futility silenced her.
