Красиво. Понравилось. 
Очень бы хотелось, чтобы когда-нибудь "Саксонкие хроники" качественно экранизировали....

"The happiness of battle. The ecstasy. It is not just deceiving an enemy, but feeling like a god. I had once tried to explain it to Gisela and she had touched my face with her long fingers and smiled.
“It’s better than this?” she had asked.
“The same,” I had said.
But it is not the same! In battle a man risks all to gain reputation. In bed he risks nothing. The joy is comparable, but the joy of a woman is fleeting, while reputation is forever. Men die, women die, all die, but reputation lives after a man, and that was why I screamed my name as Serpent-Breath took her first soul."

Bernard Cornwell 'The Sword Song'
