Image
Tempus wanders eternally, bringing death to whomever loves him and being spurned by whomsoever he shall love.

Image
Revenge is never the best driver for a battle, but a common one.
Janet Morris
Image
Everything that anyone respects is what men naturally excel at: fighting, accruing wealth, playing at power.
