Something there is in it universally felt to be more shameful than even felonious crime. And not only does everybody disown it, but the better sort are inclined to incredulity when it is in earnest imputed to an intelligent man. But since it's lodgement is in the heart and not the brain, no degree of intellect supplies a guarantee against it.”
Herman Melville, Billy Budd, Sailor“Maybee there is no guile here," Deor suggested. "Perhaps it is just a group of dragons who have come together to raid the hold.""The diffirence? if they pretend to cooperate ... they must cooperate to pretend. It would be worse than a guile.”
James Enge, A Guile of Dragons“To have memories, happy or sorrowful, is a blessing, for it shows we have lived our lives without reservation.”
