If you want to write something completely unique, you will probably fail or at best write something without redeeming value.

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.

When the balance is restored, people get hurt.
Janet Morris
Image
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
Image
I don't want to be any closer to the gods than death will bring me.
Janet Morris
Image
Be polite to all, friendly to none. Be professional. Be ready to kill everyone and everything.

Wars don't bring lasting peace, only lasting death.
