— Tanith Lee, Delusion's Master (1981), Part 1 “The Souring of the Fruit”, Chapter 1 “Storytellers”
“Utu, shepherd of the land, father of the black-headed, when you go to sleep, the people go to sleep with you; youth Utu, when you rise, the people rise with you.”
— Lugalbanda to Utu, the ancient Mesopotamian , in Lugalbanda in the Mountain Cave, Ur III Period (21st century BCE).
