More quotes by Janet Morris
One man can make another's life so much better.
Janet Morris
Some nights, valor and cold purpose aren't enough.
Janet Morris
Wanting neither too much to live, nor too much to die.
Janet Morris
Something is going on everywhere, most of which no one understands.
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
I thought we'd die there, quarrels in our backs, you for what you did and me for bearing witness.
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
We've the new hard-steel, though why they're all so hot to pay twice the price when men're soft as clay and even wood will pierce the boldest belly, I can't say.
Janet Morris
You get what you expect. Expect to heal. Expect victory.
Janet Morris
Niko's angular face caught a flicker of firelight and Tempus saw his future there: sharp purpose, discipline, and power in perfect balance love of man and gods, and mercy transcending all. If war ever wore a more humane face, this one would make it so.
Janet Morris
Everyone prepares for battle in his own way.
Janet Morris
Haste breeds error error breeds woe.
Janet Morris
Love sees all hate is blind.
Janet Morris
It's all right. Things as they once were will never be again, but it's all right.
