Quote by Linda Kage

“You’re playing with fire.” Then she went and jabbed her finger into my gut. I laughed and dodged away when she came at me again. “Woman,” I warned. “Don’t poke me.” With a playful laugh, she charged. “Don’t be such a baby. I like it when you poke me.” As I caught her and imprisoned her arms, I threw my head back and roared with laughter.”

“So many people think that they are not gifted because they don’t have an obvious talent that people can recognize because it doesn’t fall under the creative arts category—writing, dancing, music, acting, art or singing. Sadly, they let their real talents go undeveloped, while they chase after fame. I am grateful for the people with obscure unremarked talents because they make our lives easier---inventors, organizers, planners, peacemakers, communicators, activists, scientists, and so forth. However, there is one gift that trumps all other talents—being an excellent parent. If you can successfully raise a child in this day in age to have integrity then you have left a legacy that future generations will benefit from.”

“Jon and Martin are here as well, so it could almost be called a double date. If Gerry and Elias were dating. Which they aren’t. It could probably be called a double date regardless. There’s not really a term for “out to the zoo with my best mate, his boyfriend, and the dickhead I’ve been shagging for almost a year now,” which is a real failure of the English language, or imagination on the part of English speakers. Maybe German’s got a sixty letter compound word to cover it. He’ll have to look into that when he’s not otherwise occupied with walking about a place full of children with limited spatial awareness.”

“In rural England, people live wrapped tight in a cocoon; only their eyes move to make sure nobody gets more than themselves. Popular education has not touched them; they communicate as their fathers did by a flick of the eyeballs, passing down grudges either improve upon or, at very least, in mint condition, from generation to generation.”

“So tell me, my sweet," the reigh demanded softly. "What did you think of the council?" "It is a brutal affair, my lord," she replied with honesty. "I would lie if I said I did not find it disturbing." His expression turned mysterious, almost...amused. "Indeed, I can imagine not everyone has the stomach to endure the sight of cut-off limbs, but give yourself time. Practice makes perfect. In a few weeks, you will not stir when a guilty man is being punished.”

“Isydoris stared at him, her mind still clouded with doubts. “So, if you do not associate yourself with slaves, servants, or even former princesses, what kind of women do meet your high royal standards?” The reigh smirked and caressed her face. “The kind who know their worth and stay true to their principles. Indeed, I admire women who radiate beauty and innocence…with just the right amount of wit and feistiness. But I must admit they are very difficult to find. As a matter of fact, so far, I have encountered only one such.”
