God Quote by Marion Zimmer Bradley

“It is hardly lonely in a nunnery, son, with other women. And God is there." Morgause said, "I would rather dwell in a hermitage in the forest than in a house full of chattering ladies! If God is there, it must be hard for him to get a word in edgewise!” quote by Marion Zimmer Bradley
