The Will to Battle (Terra Ignota, #3) by Ada Palmer

6 notes & 14 highlights

Even standing on the same floor as his guests and guards, so imperious was Caesar’s stance that my mind insists he held a scepter in his hand, though I believe it was, in fact, an apple.

“I like to do things certain ways and I disagree with everybody but I don't even want to argue.”

“Still, a living, breathing human being--even a boneheaded or barely articulate one--conveys so much in person. The physical fact of a creature with heart thrumming and neurons flickering--what Shakespeare called the 'poor, bare, forked animal'--compels us all; we're all hardwired in moments of empathy to see ourselves in another.”
― Mary Karr, The Art of Memoir
