wor(l)d's end...

"When a world ends, there's always something left over. A story, perhaps, or a vision, or a hope. This inn is a refuge, after the lights go out. For a while..."

-The innkeeper, in Sandman #56: "World's End"


"So, like everyone else, I was staring out of one of the windows of the inn at the end of the words..."
"Worlds. I meant worlds..."

-Brant Tucker, in Sandman #56: "World's End"

"Hey. Thanks for listening. I suppose you must think I'm crazy."
"No. I don't. Maybe I ought to. But I don't. You hear a lot of weird stories behind a bar..."

-Brant Tucker and the bartender, in Sandman #56: "World's End"

endings are mixed blessings...
