Jim Butcher Quote

Isana laughed. And you, lady? Are you a woman of conscience or of ambition?The lady smiled. That's a question rarely asked here at court.And why is that?Because a woman of conscience would tell you that she is a person of conscience. A woman of ambition would tell you that she is a person of conscience—only much more convincingly.
