- It is not enough for a county to have castles in various states of tumbling, it must have haunted castles, cursed castles. Hookland being in the first order of these things goes further. It boasts stone towers which wander, broken-toothed citadels which are only sometimes there. - #CLNolan
- Goodnight from Lavina Hurd, still abuzz with visions after the sonic pomp of Silver Hand in concert at the Brighthaven Coliseum. Goodnight from Madeleine Waller, not sure if the giant sphere of star-white light hovering above the house is a thing of her dreams or real. Goodnight from Hookland.
- Folklore dissolves time. Folklore is the simultaneous landscape of stories. For folklore is the past holding hands with the now as it walks into tomorrow. Ancient magical beasts and the singing of transmission towers all at once. To walk folklore is to walk wonder. – Dr. M. Benn, 1982 #Folklore
