A hatchling, that is what you are. A hatchling struggling into the world. I may be younger than you in years, but I am ancient in my thoughts. Do not worry about these things. Find peace in where and what you are. People often know what must be done. All you need to do is show them the way — that is wisdom.

Christopher Paolini
He's acting as foolish as a kitten... but then, everyone's entitled to a little foolishness once in a while.
Christopher Paolini
A true warrior does not fight because he wishes to but because he has to. A man who yearns for war, a man who enjoys his killing, he is a brute and a monster. No matter how much glory he wins on the battlefield, that cannot erase the fact that he is no better than a rabid wolf who will turn on his friends and family as soon as his foes.
Christopher Paolini
Never ask an elf for help they might decide your better off dead, eh? (Orik) (Eldest) (Page 207)
