Quotes

"One day she'll cut herself with that tongue." (Siuan to Moiraine about Katerine, New Spring, Chapter 5)

"Of necessity Black sisters kept themselves hidden, even from each other. Their rare gatherings were held with faces covered and voices disguised. Before Galina, Katerine had known only two to recognize. Orders were left on her pillow, or in a pocket of her cloak, the ink ready to vanish if any hand but hers touched the paper. She had a secret place to leave messages, and dire orders not to try to see who came to take them. She had never disobeyed." (Katerine thinks to herself about the Black Ajah; Lord of Chaos, Prologue)

"We intend to offer him escort to Tar Valon. Once he leaves Cairhien for Tar Valon, there will be -- a vacuum here." (Katerine to Colavaere about Rand; Lord of Chaos, Chapter 25).

“This was not caused by the Amyrlin, it was created by your foolish rebels and their betrayal” (To Egwene, The Gathering Storm, Chapter 2)
