Death is lighter than a feather, but Duty is heavier than a mountain.

The Wheel of Time, The Eye of the World ~ Robert Jordan

The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again.

The Wheel of Time ~ Robert Jordan

I will never shame you. I will hate the man you choose because he is not me, and love him if he makes you smile. No woman deserves the sure knowledge of widow's black as her bride price, you least of all.
