Mark Helprin Quote
Mortality is like the cold. It cannot be altered by human conceit or solidarity, and at the end you will be on your knees, in shock and amazement, and then you'll have only one sword, one shield, one great thing to carry you through. Alessandro waited to hear what that was, but his father would not say. If you don't discover it yourself, it will be nothing more than an exhortation from me.
