Nothing of real worth can ever be bought. Love, friendship, honour, valour, respect. All these things have to be earned.
David GemmellLove is both wondrous and yet full of peril. Love is a gateway through which hatred - disguised and unrecognized - can pass.
David GemmellTrust your instincts, and make judgements on what your heart tells you. The heart will not betray you.
David GemmellWhy now? Why not? Live or die, a man and a woman need love. There is a need in the race. We need to share. To belong. Perhaps you will die before the year is out. But remember this: to have may be taken from you, to have had never. Far better to have tasted love before dying, than to die alone.
