Image
If a man truly loves,....He does not consider the obstacles, the restrictions, the reasons why his choice may be flawed or impratical. He gives no heed to what others may think. His heart has no room for that, for it is filled to the brim with the unutterable truth of his feelings.

Eat of my deep earth, drink of my living streams, for I am your Mother. Your heart is my wild drum, your breath my eternal song. If you would live, dance with me!
Juliet Marillier
Image
Because if I see you defeated, then I think I will see Alban defeated, and if that happens, none of us can go on. To guard you is to guard the heart of this land of ours.
Juliet Marillier
Image
Why should I be polished and improved like goods for sale? I might not even want to marry! And besides, I have many skills. I can read and write and play the flute and harp. Why should I change to please some man? If he doesn’t like me the way I am, then he can get some other girl for his wife.

Image
And as I watched him, I knew that in every dark night there was, somewhere, a small light burning that could never be quenched.
Juliet Marillier
Image
Nobody expects you to exhibit godlike strength, excepting maybe yourself.
Juliet Marillier
Image
I thought of betrayal and how it came so easily - in a word, a glance, a gesture.
Juliet Marillier
Image
But I believe we all have an inner goodness a little flame that stays alight through the worst of trials.

Nothing comes without a price.
