"Who was yonder old Roman who said, 'Call no man happy until he is dead'? My task, then, is to bring that greatest of all happinesses to my father, and why should I then rebel against that fate?"

Anoywn - it was on your quiz, where'd you get it from? Thanks!

I think it really has to be Mists of Avalon, because that is the only Arthur book I would know well enough to instantly recognize a quote from it, since it is the only one I've read more than once.

I couldn't say what page without looking it up.
