“That joy. That madness. The gods must feel this way every moment of every day. It is as if the world slows. You see the attacker, you see him shouting, though you hear nothing, and you know what he will do, and all his movements are so slow and yours are so quick, and in that moment you can do no wrong and you will live forever and your name will be blazoned across the heavens in a glory of white fire because you are the god of battle.”
― Bernard Cornwell

“Great people will always be mocked by those who feel smaller than them.”

“The more time we spend interconnected via a myriad of devices, the less time we have left to develop true friendships in the real world.”
