It's all right. Things as they once were will never be again, but it's all right.
Janet Morris
Image
To the death with honor, shoulder to shoulder, and no one gets closer to a Stepson than his partner.
Janet Morris
Image
What doesn't bend must break, when dooms are apportioned and destiny takes the lead. As it will now, and as it must, until this struggle ends.
