“What did your mother used to say about the potter's wheel?"
Sazana closed her eyes. "When you sit at the wheel, tuck your elbow against your thigh. That's the anchor that will keep your arm from quivering."
Arta joined his voice to hers, and together they finished her mother's oft-repeated advice. "But anchor your heart to God, and he will keep you from being shaken.”
― The Royal Artisan
