"To find a new world, maybe you have to have lost one. Maybe you have to be lost. The dance of renewal, the dance that made the world, was always danced here at the edge of things, on the brink, on the foggy coast."
Dancing at the Edge of the World: Thoughts on Words, Women, Places - Ursula K. Le Guin

World-Making (1981) from Dancing at the Edge of World: Thoughts on Words, Women, Places by Ursula le Guin
