Marion Zimmer Bradley
I am dedicated to the belief that it is God's will that all men should strive for wisdom in themselves, not look to it from some other. Babes, perhaps, must have their food chewed for them by a nurse, but men may drink and eat of wisdom for themselves.
Marion Zimmer Bradley

If you feel powerless over your fear, you have not yet admitted that it is yours, to do with as you will.
Marion Zimmer Bradley
A priestess of Avalon does not lie. But I am cast out of Avalon, and for this, and unless it is all to be for nothing, I must lie, and lie well and quickly
Marion Zimmer Bradley
The older I grow the more I become certain that it makes no difference what words we use to tell the same truths.
