More quotes by Janet Morris
I thought we'd die there, quarrels in our backs, you for what you did and me for bearing witness.
Janet Morris
It's all the same - no good without evil, no balance...no maat. If we lose one, we lose the other. It's just life, that's all.
Janet Morris
I don't want to be any closer to the gods than death will bring me.
Janet Morris
Love sees all hate is blind.
Janet Morris
I can start the rain. Bring thunder. Bring lightning. Want to see?
Janet Morris
For me, myth is the 'common' language of us all.
Janet Morris
There must be love, and understanding, to betray. Most men haven't the wit or the honor for betrayal: not to know it when they see it not the stomach to apprehend it as they do it. Most men, blind and dumb in their self-centeredness, don't betray: they merely disappoint.
Janet Morris
Painful things are quickly forgotten.
Janet Morris
Fight for life itself and everlasting freedom of the human spirit.
Janet Morris
Gods colliding, ethos and mythos trying to combine. The Sacred Band caught up in a whirlwind not of any god's devising: he and Niko had wanted to save twenty-three pairs of fated Theban fighters. Now everything feels fated and fighting oversweeps its boundaries of time and place and plane.
Janet Morris
The city guardsmen were like the keres, doom-bringers of merciless vengeance.
Janet Morris
This fight coming is not a battle of weapons, but a battle of wills.
Janet Morris
Dreamers and dreaming dead, lots of them from neither here nor there with no chance of getting home again, lost in place and time.
Janet Morris
Wisdom, Niko thought as he leaned his cheek against his long-handled rake, cannot be had without price.
Janet Morris
Death is a doorway, Niko, that leads to an adventure greater than any you have ever known.
Janet Morris
I must decide if you deserve to die.
Janet Morris
This was what men fought for, what men died for: a chance at life, and to fight on other days - the battle of your choice, of the body, or the heart, or the soul.
Janet Morris
To take care of the world seemed, finally, a privilege rather than a burden. The Riddler had led them to life's greatest victory. They had found a home.
Janet Morris
To the death with honor, shoulder to shoulder, and no one gets closer to a Stepson than his partner.
Janet Morris
Each soul has its appointed doom. How is it you dare to raise a mortal boy so high - high enough to flout the gods? Bring godhead where a man may reach out and take it? growls Enlil, and lightning splits a clear blue sky.
