"I suppose I could not understand it if women had simply forgotten unicorns or if they had changed so that they loved all unicorns now and tried to save them when they saw them. But not to see them at all, to feel them and sense something else — what do they look like to one another, then? A beast? What do trees look like to them, or houses, or real horses, or their own children?"

"Quests may not simply be abandoned; prophecies may not be left to rot like unpicked fruit; unicorns may go unrescued for a very long time, but not forever. The happy ending cannot come in the middle of the story."

"No matter what, I suspect that the unicorn will always be with us. He might retreat deep into the forest in order to escape all the hoopla surrounding him today, and we may have to look harder and be more sincere in the future if we want to find him. But well continue searching for this Holy Grail of the animal world just as we have for millennia, and, ultimately, I believe that well find his glory deep within ourselves."
