And yet now and then he let himself steal a glance at her. Lovely dark colors of her skin, hair, and eyes. We are half-baked compared to them. Allowed out of the kiln before we were fully done. The old aboriginal myth; the truth, there.

Philip K. Dick
About This Quote

When you are half-baked, you are still hot and the fire inside is still burning. This quote speaks of the love that people have for each other. It is a beautiful thing that they can still love each other even after they have been apart for a period of time. It is also a beautiful thing that they were never truly separated from one another in the first place. They were made from each other and always will be tied by something more than time.
