Quote by Ardin Patterson

“A smile parted between her lips, peering at Julius flopping about in his uncle’s arms. Dianna couldn’t help but let out a light chuckle. One of the little boy’s mittens dangled by a thread from the sleeve of his jacket while Roland danced about, trying to remove his boots without waking Julius up.”

“Maternal love is an instinctive and natural impulse, and animals possess it in a degree as high as that of human beings. This alone is enough to show that it is not true love, that it is not of moral origin ; for all morality proceeds from the intelligible character which animals, having no free will, do not possess. The ethical imperative can be heard only by a rational creature ; there is no such thing as natural morality, for all morality must be self-conscious.”

“For a moment, there was silence. That is, if you don't count Xemerius, who was killing himself with laughter as he swung from the chandelier. I couldn't say a word, because I was busy getting that piece of quiche down.
