Life Quote by Dan Brown
““Your life is not over, Admiral,” the pope whispered. “Your work is not done. This is why God saved you. Your sworn mission is only half complete. You have served country, yes…but you have not yet served God!” Ávila felt like he had been struck by a bullet. “Peace be with you!” the pope proclaimed.””
