Complicitence Quotes & Sayings

Nay, could their numbers countervail the stars,

Open to them your hand to the shore, watch them walk into the sea.
Press upon them all they need, see them yearn for all they want.
Gift to them the calm pool of words, watch them draw the sword.

And the sea, my friends,
Does not dream of you. — Steven Erikson
