“I have it in me to be a great king, strong yet generous, clever, just, diligent, loyal to my friends and terrible to my enemies, yet capable of forgiveness, patient—”

“If a thousand ships set sail, three hundred may reach the far side of the narrow sea … and then what? The first storm will scatter us across half the earth.”
