“Are you afraid a demon has escaped Hell in order to descend upon the Venetians?" "I think there are a few who'd deserve it, but I'm also a man of science, and I believe that we all carry our own private infernos inside ourselves." -Conversation between Majid and Mathias” HumansHuman NatureHuman ConditionDemonsReal Or Not Real Book:The Lion and the Rose Source: The Lion and the Rose
“I don't know what you're getting yourself into," said Majid, "but I know I don't like it. Some things in Venice are pure poison." Majid's eyes looked like they could bore through a stone wall. "If someone has put you on a demon's tracks, you'd better make sure the demon doesn't find you first." "What's that supposed to mean," asked Mathias. "It means behind every hand stained with blood there's another, and that one stays clean." Majid leaned in close, lowering his voice to a whisper. "What I'm saying is that behind a demon, there's always someone holding the creature on a leash.” DangerousDangerWarningDemonsThreatsDangerous WorldDangerous PeopleWarning QuotesHidden AgendasDangerous GamesDangerous MindsHidden Dangers Book:The Lion and the Rose Source: The Lion and the Rose
