I'm sure that the unpleasant incident has spawned hundreds of blog entries a

Quotes by Jeanne Kalogridis  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I do not worship their devil. Nor do I worship their other gods--Jesus, Jehovah, the Holy Spirit--but I respect them, for all gods are One. I worship the Great Mother, the one many call Diana, whose secret name the inquisitors shall never know. If this makes me a witch by their definition--very well then, I am a witch, just as surely as they are Christians and murderers.”
Jeanne Kalogridis, The Burning Times

“Miroir de l'Ame Pecheresse, Mirror of a Lost Soul.”
Jeanne Kalogridis, The Devil's Queen: A Novel of Catherine de Medici

“I had a choice: to quail, or to harden.

I hardened.”
Jeanne Kalogridis, The Devil's Queen: A Novel of Catherine de Medici
