More quotes by Janet Morris
Gods have bloody hands.
Janet Morris
Be polite to all, friendly to none. Be professional. Be ready to kill everyone and everything.
Janet Morris
Love sees all hate is blind.
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
Some nights, valor and cold purpose aren't enough.
Janet Morris
The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
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
Niko, you're halfway to where you need to go. It's the most dangerous time. And all the gods and forces have a stake in you, Hero. Or do you want to be just a memory, a cult somewhere, with people sacrificing horses to your name?
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
Everything that anyone respects is what men naturally excel at: fighting, accruing wealth, playing at power.
Janet Morris
What we hold sacred is honor, justice, and glory. You need not swear allegiance to our storm god, to serve with us. Fighters are among us from many lands, with many gods and many beliefs. Believe as you will. What is between a man and his god is theirs alone to say.
Janet Morris
It's all right. Things as they once were will never be again, but it's all right.
Janet Morris
I am always yours to call, wherever the sea can reach.
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
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
I can start the rain. Bring thunder. Bring lightning. Want to see?
Janet Morris
Survival has its own etiquette.
Janet Morris
Keep your enemies at a distance, your partners close at hand.
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
You must become like yourself.
