Note: I'm not dead, just dealing with a crapload of bad news and stress this week.
Have a couple of quotes from The Curse of Chalion.
* * *
"Every [prince] is handsome. Unless they're completely hideous, in which case their face has 'character'."
-Royesse Iselle on the subject of a potential marriage partner.
“Any man can be kind when he is comfortable. I'd always thought kindness a trivial virtue therefore. But when we were hungry, thirsty, sick, frightened, with our deaths shouting at us, in the heart of horror, you were still as unfailingly courteous as a gentleman at his ease before his own hearth."
"Events may be horrible or inescapable. Men have always a choice - if not whether, then how they may endure.
-Bergon (said handsome prince) and Cazaril
