The Quill
«Spectators came from far away. The Queen of Camelot, the Duchess of Astor; the court architect, Philip of Glass (who has lately turned to stone); and the court's prose laureate, Brendan the Quill.»
«QUILL, n. An implement of torture yielded by a goose and commonly wielded by an ass. This use of the quill is now obsolete, but its modern equivalent, the steel pen, is wielded by the same everlasting Presence.»
