Quotes from the Shadows "He who has not tasted the bitter, does not understand the sweet." "Chin up, eyes forward, you will not falter. Do not be distracted by looking behind you, for there is greatness ahead if you strive. I know that there is a strength in you that will lead you through even the most trying of times." - Nissim Melamed "I mean, what is there to say?" - Jerry Holiday "So you've seen what she can do with her award winning flowers right?" - Kenneth Bilge "I absolutely adore spending time with Lady Schulmann. She's always so pleasant to talk with." - Alice Vermeer "She's quite intelligent. I have pondered matters of the soul since the embrace. Having someone else who was also born Jewish is a great opportunity especially since she has had more time to reconcile this disconnect. I know we exist for a reason but the answer to that why is something that has led to bloodshed....among Kindred and kine alike."
