I am not tough, nor hardened, nor strong. I cannot fight…

“I am not tough, nor hardened, nor strong. I cannot fight. I do not have what it takes. I can comfort my friends with this gift, but I cannot heal the world with it, and I certainly cannot do battle with an evil sorcerer with it! You are mistaken!” quote by Mina Marial Nicoli
