The Moon Riders Quotes

“Myrina remembered what her father had told her about the way the Trokans protected their women. What were they afraid of? Might their women ride away and never come back if they learned horse skills?”
― Theresa Tomlinson, The Moon Riders

“Aben sighed. "Trojans, like Achaeans, keep their women safe at home, though I for one can't understand such foolishness; those who women ride and fight have twice as many warriors.”
― Theresa Tomlinson, The Moon Riders

“Why do we not stay here forever?" Myrina had once asked her grandmother, when she'd been very young.
Hati had laughed. "I wish we could, my honey-child. This place is perfect, but it wouldn't stay perfect for long if we lived here. The waters would run dry, the grazing would be used up and the ground poisoned with our mess; we'd destroy what gives us so much pleasure.”
