More quotes by Janet Morris

Janet Morris
Men are fools who forget what really matters while time goes by.
Janet Morris
What we hold sacred is honor, justice, and glory. You need not swear allegiance to our storm god, to serve with us. Fighters are among us from many lands, with many gods and many beliefs. Believe as you will. What is between a man and his god is theirs alone to say.
Janet Morris

Janet Morris
Bandara was not an easy place to return to: it could hide from the common worlds whose periphery it inhabited. But Bandara never had, in all its years, completely disappeared.
Janet Morris
Arrows are cheap you're expensive.
Janet Morris
Gods and politics are the tools with which the godless and unprincipled manipulate the gullible.
Janet Morris
You three have done quite enough today: all of you and your feckless, treacherous god.
Janet Morris
Survival has its own etiquette.
Janet Morris
Everything that anyone respects is what men naturally excel at: fighting, accruing wealth, playing at power.
Janet Morris
The universe forgives those who give until their hearts are aching and their spirits weak, and finds a way to renew all strength and cure all ills, in this world or the next, if a soul can just have faith.
