How many hopes and dreams are trapped within these bones? How many wonders lie never to be discovered? This is what war is. Desolation, despair and loss. There are no victors.

David GemmellTrust your instincts, and make judgements on what your heart tells you. The heart will not betray you.
David GemmellLife is a struggle, from the agonies of birth to the railing against death. Devour or be devoured. The law of the wild.
David GemmellMan is capable of greatness, love, nobility, compassion. Yet never forget that his capacity for evil is infinite. It is a sad truth, boy, that if you sit now and think of the worst tortures that could ever be inflicted on another human being, they will already have been practiced somewhere. If there is one sound that follows the march of humanity, it is the scream.
