It is purity of spirit that will keep corruption from the flesh
Mark Lawrence
A strange thing — nails will hold a building together, but there's nothing better for taking a man apart.
Mark Lawrence
Questions for questions. You're a man who's spent time at court.
Mark Lawrence
Let's go to Valhalla with the sun on our faces.
Mark Lawrence
For the longest time I studied revenge to the exclusion of all else. I built my first torture chamber in the dark vaults of imagination. Lying on bloody sheets in the Healing Hall I discovered doors within my mind that I'd not found before, doors that even a child of nine knows should not be opened. Doors that never close again. I threw them wide.
Mark Lawrence
I may be running out of options, but running out isn't an option.
Mark Lawrence
You're a Good Little Slave
Mark Lawrence
I think maybe we die every day. Maybe we're born new each dawn, a little changed, a little further on our own road. When enough days stand between you and the person you were, you're strangers. Maybe that's what growing up is. Maybe I have grown up.
Mark Lawrence
You soon learn there’s no elegance or dignity in death if you spend time in the castle kitchens. You learn how ugly it is, and how good it tastes.
Mark Lawrence
A fool may scrawl on a slate and if no one has the wit to wipe it clean for a thousand years, the scrawl becomes the wisdom of ages.
Mark Lawrence
No half measures. Some things can’t be cut in half. You can’t half-love someone. You can’t half-betray, or half-lie.
Mark Lawrence
Anything that you cannot sacrifice pins you. Makes you predictable, makes you weak.
Mark Lawrence
There's a road to hell that is paved with good intentions but it's a long route. The quicker path is paved with the kind of ignorance that clever men who just don't want to know are best at.
Mark Lawrence
Confusing the author and the character seems to be a popular and rather unsophisticated reaction to books.
Mark Lawrence
I maintain a balanced view of the world, but that balance is always in my favour.
Mark Lawrence
Dark times call for dark choices. Choose me.
Mark Lawrence
Men think if they're getting laid, everything is fine. Women think if they feel good, everything is fine. Neither turns out to be a very good indicator.
Mark Lawrence
You can only win the game when you understand that it is a game. Let a man play chess, and tell him that every pawn is his friend. Let him think both bishops holy. Let him remember happy days in the shadows of his castles. Let him love his queen. Watch him lose them all.
Mark Lawrence
Four years and everything was the same, except me.
Mark Lawrence
Do you know why the leaves change colour?... Before a tree sheds a leaf it pumps it full of all the poison it can't rid itself of otherwise. That red there--that's a man's skin blotching with burst veins after an assassin spikes his last meal with roto-weed. The poison spreading through him before he dies.
