The Tawny Man Trilogy, tome 3 : Fool's Fate

Do you think you can pretend to be dead and vanish from my life for sixteen years and then walk in and then pour yourself some of my good Brandy? Insolence!

Every small, unselfish action nudges the world into a better path. An accumulation of small acts can change the world.

When people look most vicious, what you are seeing is not their animal side. It is the savagery that only humans can muster.

What a man can take with a sword, a woman can give by her flesh alone. Life.

Home is people. Not a place. If you go back there after the people are gone, then all you can see is what is not there any more.
