Respect Quote by Diana Gabaldon

“There are things ye maybe canna tell me, he had said. I willna ask ye, or force ye. But when ye do tell me something, let it be the truth. There is nothing between us now but respect, and respect has room for secrets, I think - but not for lies.” quote by Diana Gabaldon — Download Open image
