from The Forgotten Garden, by Kate Morton

   "Life'd be a lot easier if it were like a fairy tale," said Cassandra, "if people belonged to stock character types."
   "Oh, but people do, they only think they don't. Even the person who insists such things don't exist is a cliche: the drear pedant who insists on his own uniqueness!"
   Cassandra took a sip of wine. "You don't think there's any such thing as uniqueness?"
   "We're all unique, just never in the ways we imagine."
