We've devoted our lives to learning about them! Miro said. Ender stopped. Not from them.
Orson Scott Card
I will never hurt you. I will always help you. If you are hungry Ill give you my food. If you are frightened I am your friend. I love you now. And love does not end.

There's no need to legalize gay marriage. I have plenty of gay friends who are committed couples some of them call themselves married, some don't, but their friends treat them as married. Anybody who doesn't like it just doesn't hang out with them.

Humans invent an imaginary lover and put that mask over the face of the body in their bed. That is the tragedy of language my friend. Those who know each other only through symbolic representations are forced to imagine each other. And because their imagination is imperfect, they are often wrong.
Orson Scott Card
Thank God for you, Ender. Thank God.

I've lived too long with pain. I won't know who I am without it
Orson Scott Card
Among my most prized possessions are words that I have never spoken.
Orson Scott Card
He jumped at the Giants face, clambered up his lip and nose, and began to dig in the Giant's eye.
Orson Scott Card
I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and I tell you he's the one.
Orson Scott Card
Working is hard and distracts from having fun.
Orson Scott Card
Once you have the gallows, you'll find new reasons to hang people from it.
Orson Scott Card
Asking a man if he could be trusted was like asking an unwed girl if she was a virgin. The question mattered, but the asking of it was gross insult.
Orson Scott Card
You understand that the piggies are animals, and you no more condemn them for murdering Libo and Pipo than you condemn a cabra for shewing up capim. That's right, said Miro. Ender smiled. And that's why you'll never learn anything from them. Because you think of them as animals.
