Bernard Cornwell Quote

"The rules of chivalry, my lord, ensure my protection."
"Chivalry? Chivalry? I have heard it mentioned in songs, madame, but this is war. Our task is to punish the followers of Charles of Blois for rebelling against their lawful lord. Punishment and chivalry do not mix."


Jeanette, the Countess of Armorica and Sir Simon Jekyll, p. 64 - The Grail Quest - The Archer's Tale/Harlequin (2000)
