More quotes by 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

Janet Morris

Janet Morris
So well do I love you, I go to my god singing your praises. When I meet my father, I will tell him I fought beside you.
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
Wisdom, Niko thought as he leaned his cheek against his long-handled rake, cannot be had without price.
Janet Morris
I can start the rain. Bring thunder. Bring lightning. Want to see?
Janet Morris
Keep your enemies at a distance, your partners close at hand.
Janet Morris
You get what you expect. Expect to heal. Expect victory.
Janet Morris
He loves the world so much. I agree it would be a shame to take that love away from meadow and tree, stream and sky, and all that lives in nature, and leave them lonely.
Janet Morris
Don't blame yourself, or worry. Neither does a bit of good.
Janet Morris
Don't forget, Riddler, how I love thee. Or all we shared together. Or that this sea and all other seas can lead you back to me.
