Malazan 08 – Toll the Hounds

If we are to live,' Rake went on, 'we must take risks. Else our lives become deaths in all but name. There is no struggle too vast, no odds too overwhelming, for even should we fail – should we fall – we will know that we have lived.'

The world changes according to where you stand. So choose, my children, choose and choose again, where you will make your stand . . .'

There is no struggle too vast, no odds too overwhelming,
for even should we fail – should we fall
– we will know that we have lived.'
