Quotes by Tom Harper (?)

“How much longer?"he asked, trying to be casual.
"For ever, if you keep interrupting.”
― Tom Harper, The Lost Temple

2 likes

“If I learned one thing that day, it was that Peter Bartholomew, Arnulf, even Saint John the Divine had all been wrong. The world did not have to end with ten-horned beasts and dragons, angels and fantastical monsters. The prophets who foretold those things had succumbed to the extravagance of their imaginations, and it had played them false. Nothing on earth could be so terrible as men.”
― Tom Harper, Siege of Heaven

“So much history buried underneath. We spend our lives to try to dig it out, but always the present buries it again.”
― Tom Harper, The Lost Temple
