“Have you heard of the legends of sleeping kings? The legends that heroes like Llewellyn and Glendower and Arthur aren’t really dead, but are instead sleeping in tombs, waiting to be woken?”
“Arthur, their young king, like a hero out of legend.”
“This was the kind of job that made legends out of hunters. Of course, to be a legend, you generally had to be dead.”
“Heroes are remembered but legends never die.”
“Men have to have heroes, but no man can ever be as big as the need, and so a legend grows around a grain of truth, like a pearl.”
“Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.”
