"We know that there is no help for us but from one another, that no hand will save us if we do not reach out our hand. And the hand that you reach out is empty, as mine is. You have nothing. You possess nothing. You own nothing. You are free. All you have is what you are, and what you give."
-

| Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed 

Ursula Le Guin has died, today. I have three of her books on my desk or bedside, right now: her translation of the Tao Te Ching, her collection of short fiction, Compass Rose, and The Left Hand Of Darkness.

I will never cease to learn from her.
