That was the problem ... with trusting to the written word ... We were human, mortal and fallible. We forgot, we made errors, argued ambiguities, and twisted meanings to suit our own ends. And in doing so, mayhap we reshaped the gods themselves.

Jacqueline CareyWhy is there ever this perverse cruelty in humankind, that makes us hurt most those we love best?
Jacqueline CareyWhip us 'till we're on the floor, we'll turn around and ask for more, we're Phรจdre's Boys! We like to hurt, we like to bleed, daily floggings do we need, we're Phรจdre's Boys! Man or woman, we don't care, give us twins we'll take the pair! We're Phรจdre's Boys! ...But just because we let you beat us, doesn't mean you can defeat us, we're Phรจdre's Boys!
