Quotations

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Hi all

I've just joined the list and hope to be an active participant in
discussions. Please forgive me if the following question has already been
addressed, I haven't had time to work my way through the archives .

When Severian meets Ultan in the library, the Master Librarian quotes the
following lines to him:

'Of the trail of ink there is no end.'

'A man will give his life to the turning over of a collection of books.'

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Matt
