David Gemmell Quote

'I have no wish to argue, Father. Yet it must be said that the monks exist here in peace and security only because of the swords of the defenders. I do not belittle your views — I wish all men shared them. But they do not.... if all men and women lived as you and I, there would be no children, and no humanity. What then would be the Will of the Source?'
