Bernard Cornwell Quotes

“He was my king and all that I have I owe to him. The food that I eat, the hall where I live, and the swords of me men, all came from Alfred, my king, who hated me.”

“A poet, a weaver of dreams, a man who makes glory from nothing and dazzles you with its making. And my job now is to tell this day’s tale in such a way that men will never forget our great deeds.”

“It is a tale of how I will take from my enemy what the law says is mine.”
