Quote by Sherryl Jordan

“Words hold a terrible power, your Grace. A word can break a heart, or give it a reason to live. A word can grant freedom or life, or begin a war – or end one. I believe words should be used with caution. It is written that the tongue is a dangerous weapon, a restless evil that no man can tame, a flame that sets on fire the world itself. I believe that, Your Grace. I believe in taking great care with words.”

Of reversals and falling in love and tragic flaws and by God if I see another motif in my business I will shoot it dead.”
