A babe at the breast is as much pleasure as the bearing is pain.
- [Babyhood]
Even in high summer, Tintagel was a haunted place; Igraine, Lady
of Duke Gorlois, looked out over the sea from the headland. As
she stared into the fogs and mists, she wondered how she would
ever know when the night and day were of equal length, so that
she could keep the Feast of the New Year. This year the spring
storms had been unusually violent; night and day the crash of the
sea had resounded over the castle until no man or woman within
could sleep, and even the hounds whimpered mournfully.
- The Mists of Avalon [Books (First Lines)]
