“In the space of a sundown, you show me the wide world from a horse’s back, and the soul of the world within my own walls.”
Robin Hobb, Fool's Errand

Lois McMaster Bujold
“Though the Ista they thought they loved, she supposed, was an imaginary one, a woman who existed only in their own minds, part icon, part habit. The reflection did not depress her unduly, now that she knew someone who loved the Ista who was real. She fell asleep thinking of him.”
Lois McMaster Bujold, Paladin of Souls

Lois McMaster Bujold
“Ista sighed at the thought of being a skipping country wench, and not tragic Ista anymore. Though she did not doubt country wenches had their tragedies, too, and much less poetic sympathy for them than did royinas.”
Lois McMaster Bujold, Paladin of Souls

Lois McMaster Bujold, Paladin of Souls
