“Let no one think of me that I am humble or weak or passive; let them understand I am of a different kind: dangerous to my enemies, loyal to my friends. To such a life glory belongs.”

“Who then will dare to say I'm weak or timid? No, they'll say I'm loyal as a friend, ruthless as a foe, so much like a hero destined for glory.”

“A woman like me! What am I like that's different from you or any man”

“One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives.”

“I understand too well the dreadful actI'm going to commit, but my judgementcan't check my anger, and that incitesthe greatest evils human beings do.”

“So, friends, what method should we use? Hard to choose. I could torch them in their love nest or butcher them in their fragrant bed.”

“I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.”
