Jamie Fraser, King of Men
I have lived through war, and lost much. I know what s worth the fight, and what is not. Honour and courage are matters of the bone, and what a man will kill for, he will sometimes die for, too. And that, O kinsman, is why a woman has broad hips; that bony basin will harbour a man and his child alike. A man s life springs from his woman s bones, and in her blood is his honour christened. For the sake of love alone, I would walk through fire Jamie Fraser, The Fiery Cross (Book 5) In anticipation
