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
Image
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
Image
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.
