Legends II Quotes

“Because people fight most fiercely when they dare not admit even to themselves that their cause is unjust.”
― Robert Silverberg, Legends II

“When you enslave a black man, you enslave yourself as well, for now you are bound to him as surely as he is bound to you, and your character is shaped by his bondage as surely as his own is. Make the black man servile, and in the same process you make yourself tyrannical. Make the black man quiver in fear before you, and you make yourself a monster of terror.”
― Robert Silverberg, Legends II

“Treason . . . is only a word. When two princes fight for a chair where only one may sit, great lords and common men alike must choose. And when the battle’s done, the victors will be hailed as loyal men and true, whilst those who were defeated will be known forevermore as rebels and traitors. That was my fate.”
― George R.R. Martin, Legends II
