Where loyalty bound creatures together, they became something larger, something new and whole and inexplicable.
Orson Scott Card
Home is where the people who live there need me to come home to them, and worry about me when I'm gone. There's no such place on this earth, no matter how far I drive.
Orson Scott Card
I have to win this now, and for all time, or I’ll fight it every day and it will get worse and worse.
Orson Scott Card
A duel is just two murders who agree to take turns trying to kill each other.
Orson Scott Card
If you try and lose then it isn't your fault. But if you don't try and we lose, then it's all your fault.
Orson Scott Card
The funny thing was, you see, that Mike Fink didn't think of himself as a murderer. He thought of life as a contest, and dying was what happened to those who came out second best, but it wasn't the same as murder, it was a fair fight.

No book, however good, can survive a hostile reading.
Orson Scott Card
Dona Crista laughed a bit. Oh, Pip, I'd be glad for you to try. But do believe me, my dear friend, touching her heart is like bathing in ice. I imagine. I imagine it feels like bathing in ice to the person touching her. But how does it feel to her? Cold as she is, it must surely burn like fire.

Orson Scott Card
Intellectual understanding does not always bring visceral belief.
Orson Scott Card
My hands are clean, but not because I wasn't prepared to bloody them.
Orson Scott Card
This is the Speaker for the Dead? Judging someone by appearances? Maybe I've fallen in love with Grego. You've always been a sucker for people who pee on you.
Orson Scott Card
I merely observe that all living things are manipulated. As long as there is a will, it is bent and twisted constantly. Only the dead are allowed the luxury of freedom, and then only because they want nothing, and therefore can't be thwarted.
Orson Scott Card
the seed of doubt was there, and it stayed, and every now and then sent out a little root. It changed everything, to have that seed growing. It made Ender listen more carefully to what people meant, instead of what they said. It made him wise.
Orson Scott Card
A broken clock is right two times a day.
Orson Scott Card
The ways of love are strange and hard: The love you want is always barred The love you have you want to change. The ways of love are hard and strange.
Orson Scott Card
In my view, suicide is not really a wish for life to end.' What is it then?' It is the only way a powerless person can find to make everybody else look away from his shame. The wish is not to die, but to hide.
Orson Scott Card
It wasn't so bad being a slave when your owner was yourself and stood up for you.
Orson Scott Card
What am I now, Alai? Still good. At what? At--anything. There's a million soldiers who'd follow you to the end of the universe. I don't want to go to the end of the universe. So where do you want to go? They'll follow you. I want to go home, thought Ender, but I don't know where it is.
Orson Scott Card
We've devoted our lives to learning about them! Miro said. Ender stopped. Not from them.
