“Laethrig is my father's first son, and Sulian is already knotted in a girl's long hair, while I- I am free, and have an itch to the soles of my feet that I shall not find easement for, here in my father's hall." I looked at him in the clear upland light, the set of his head that matched that of the hawk on his fist, the hot red-brown eyes under the black brows; and I thought that he might be well right in that, and thought also that it would be good to have this frowning youngster among my captains. "I can maybe find the means for easing the soles to your feet," I said. "And if there is a like itching in the palm of your sword hand, I can find you a fine way to appease that also.”

“To my soul: Are you ever going to achieve goodness? Ever going to be simple, whole, and naked - as plain to see as the body that contains you? Know what an affectionate and loving disposition would feel like? Ever be fulfilled, ever stop desiring - lusting and longing for people and things to enjoy? Or for more time to enjoy them? Or for some other place or country - "a more temperate clime"? Or for people easier to get along with? And instead be satisfied with what you have, and accept the present - all of it.”
