More quotes by Janet Morris
Always take responsibility for your past. It is your only collateral in life. Unless you despise yourself now, you cannot despise yourself then. Everything you did is a part of the process that brought you here. All your past is as alive and real as your so-called 'present.'
Janet Morris
Men are fools who forget what really matters while time goes by.
Janet Morris
It was his soul's freedom that was in question. And that question was whether freedom was worth the price when it meant shirking the responsibilities of honor.
Janet Morris
I see all sorts of things when I'm clearing my pipes.
Janet Morris
There must be love, and understanding, to betray. Most men haven't the wit or the honor for betrayal: not to know it when they see it not the stomach to apprehend it as they do it. Most men, blind and dumb in their self-centeredness, don't betray: they merely disappoint.
Janet Morris
Generosity is never out of season.
Janet Morris
I am always yours to call, wherever the sea can reach.
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
What would the world be without him, and those like him?
Janet Morris
Nothing powers hate better than embarrassment.
Janet Morris
I...keep trying to be perfect. For you. So you'll notice me.
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
Tempus wanders eternally, bringing death to whomever loves him and being spurned by whomsoever he shall love.
Janet Morris
It is upon each soul to recognize its limit.
Janet Morris
Die never for a god, Nikodemos who should know better - not your soldiers' god, nor any other.
Janet Morris
Revenge is never the best driver for a battle, but a common one.
Janet Morris
Each soul has its appointed doom. How is it you dare to raise a mortal boy so high - high enough to flout the gods? Bring godhead where a man may reach out and take it? growls Enlil, and lightning splits a clear blue sky.
Janet Morris
Haste breeds error error breeds woe.
Janet Morris
Why is it we are always the targets of the angry Fates? Twice as many men of ours met harm as did theirs, since we've come here.
Janet Morris
These Stepsons tread where mortals don't belong, some of us think. They seek out battle high above their station. Who knows what powers may yet take them and their mystic allies to task, bring them their comeuppance?
