Lymond Quotes

“Tant que je vive, mon cueur ne changera
Pour nulle vivante, tant soit elle bonne ou sage
Forte et puissante, riche de hault lignaige
Mon chois est fait, aultrene se fera
***
Long as I live, my heart will never vary
For no one else, however fair or good
Brave, resolute, or rich, of gentle blood
My choice is made, and I will have no other.”
― Dorothy Dunnett, Checkmate

-Francis Crawford of Lymond”
― Dorothy Dunnett, The Disorderly Knights

“Lymond said gently, "Let us bathe in moral philosophy, as in a living river. Double-dealing is my business.”
― Dorothy Dunnett, The Game of Kings
