Quotes

  • I have never believed in fate or destiny or any other concept that invests the courses of our lives with portentous meaning. Most people in our godless world believe we are born into random circumstance, and it is solely our own deeds and choices that determine whether we find ourselves in a palace or prison when we die. I’d not disagree.
  • I remarked that it must be difficult to anticipate betrayal from lifetime friends.“It is as it has always been,” he said. “From boyhood, I’ve had to assume that every person at my table, friend or stranger, carries a knife ready to let my blood or wears a pocket ring primed to drop poison into my wine. It is a not-so-nice consequence of Lady Fortune’s abundant blessings. Certain, the habit has saved my life more than once.”
  • Everything I have accomplished in this city, everything I have yet to accomplish, takes its root in the rule of law. If I am complicit in lawbreaking—if I interfere and exonerate a confessed felon because of my personal preferences—then I am no better than my uncle you once named monster.
  • Reason crushed that idiocy instantly.
  • “That was a brave thing.”“Didn’t feel at all brave. Just desperate.”“Bravery results from desperation more often than we’d like to think.”
  • “This means war. And who suffers most if powerful families go to war?”“Everyone else but them.”
