Movie quotes

  • (..) I reject everything of this world... Honor and glory, love of oneself, even shame. I only care about the will of the gods. Only then can everything worldly pass away, can the voices of the gods be heard. And then their spirit dwells in me, and I feel the ability to heal and prophecy. (..)
