Kim Harrison Quote

You listen to me, and listen good! she shouted, shocking me. I am not evil because I have a thousand years of demon smut on my soul! she exclaimed, the tips of her hair trembling and her face flushed. Every time you disturb reality, nature has to balance it out. The black on your soul isn't evil, it's a promise to make up for what you have done. It's a mark, not a death sentence. And you can get rid of it given time.Ceri, I'm sorry, I fumbled, but she wasn't listening. You're an ignorant, foolish, stupid witch, she berated, and I cringed, my grip tightening on the copper spell pot and feeling the anger from her like a whip. Are you saying because I carry the stink of demon magic, that I'm a bad person?No... I wedged in.That God will show no pity? she said, green eyes flashing. That because I made one mistake in fear that led to a thousand more that I will burn in hell?No. Ceri - I took a step forward.My soul is black, she said, her fear showing in her suddenly pale cheeks. I'll never be rid of it all before I die, but it won't be because I'm a bad person but because I was a frightened one.
