More quotes by Janet Morris
Look to the souls of Your own soldiers, God, who labor in Thine awful cause.
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
No ethos, pursued without thought or mercy, is ethical.
Janet Morris
This is as 'alone' as I'm likely to get with you - you're not half so fetching as your daughter.
Janet Morris
If cities have souls, Sanctuary's was troubled long before Tempus got here, and will be troubled long after he and his are gone.
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
Go carefully, child of mat, where no mercy can be had, and let your faith lead you on.
Janet Morris

Janet Morris
You must become like yourself.
Janet Morris
Such hubris could only come from a man's mouth.
Janet Morris
If it was true today, it might be untrue tomorrow.
Janet Morris

Janet Morris
You three have done quite enough today: all of you and your feckless, treacherous god.
Janet Morris
Men are fools who forget what really matters while time goes by.
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
The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
Janet Morris
Loyalty must be forged - to him, to his: stronger than iron, from experience, from risk - it can't be bought, or taught, or promised before the fact. Allegiance must be earned so it will hold, win or lose.
Janet Morris
Men may not believe you, my son. But you must always say the truth, when the truth holds no danger for you or your loved ones.
Janet Morris
What wastrel mankind destroyed takes time for nature to put to rights.
Janet Morris
I thought we'd die there, quarrels in our backs, you for what you did and me for bearing witness.
