Thea Harrison Quotes

Civilization Was A Dance, And The Ancient Wyr Were Late To The Ball. They Donned Masks And Slipped With Silent Predatory Grace Into The Ballroom. They Watched With Sharp Eyes That Glittered Deep In The Shadows Behind Their Assumed Facades, Recording And Learning The Twist And Rhythm Of The Dance, The Social Mores, When To Bow And Press Their Lips To The Back Of The Hand, How To Smile And Say Good Evening, Please And Thank You And Yes, I Shall Take More Sugar With My Tea.
All The While They Noted The Pulse That Fluttered At The Base Of The Dancers' Necks, The Scents Of Sweat And The Quickened Breath.
