Quote by Farrah Rochon

“Oh my gods, there you are!" Mel slapped a hand over her chest and sucked in several deep breaths, as if she had just escaped the clutches of the nine-headed Hydra. Of course, her sister would have the same reaction if she were to encounter a tiny field mouse. When it came to Mel it was either serene calm or full-on hysteria; there was no in between.”

“Thank you," Mel said, brushing each stallion's gorgeous mane as she climbed out of the chariot. They all responded with excited neighs. "They like you," Thalia said.

“The religious wars between the Hindus and Moslems and Christians and non-Christians were all conducted on the basis of ignorance. One who is in knowledge knows that God is one; He cannot be Moslem, Hindu or Christian. It is our imagination that God is such and such and such and such. That is all imagination. The real wise man knows that God is transcendental. When we leave the body, God also goes with us, and when we take on another body, He goes with us there just to see what we are doing. The wise man, the jñānī, actually understands the science of God. One who only understands that “God is good” is in a preliminary stage, but one who actually understands how great and good God is, is further progressed. That knowledge is to be had in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and Bhagavad-gītā. One who is actually interested in God should study the science of God, Bhagavad-gītā.”

“Alaric felt Talasyn take a shaky gasp of breath against him, and he hunched further down, further into her, stirred by an instinctive protectiveness that was all he had to give for now. He was rattled by how close she’d come to getting killed—by her former countrymen, no less. He could barely comprehend that she had saved his life, that she had killed a former comrade in order to do so.”

“Alaric.” Talasyn caught his arm. He looked back at her blankly. “The rebel with the crossbow—why didn’t you kill him?” His gray eyes lingered on her hand on his sleeve, then drifted to her face. “Because you told me not to.”
