More quotes by Orson Scott Card

Nobodys life ever goes according to plan. So why do we keep on planning? Because that's how we know who we are. By what we intend to be. By what we try to become. And fail. I don't say 'fail'. I saw we aim and miss. But we still hit something.
Orson Scott Card
Good people do not let others suffer needlessly.
Orson Scott Card
A duel is just two murders who agree to take turns trying to kill each other.
Orson Scott Card
If you lay a hand on me I'll ram your testicles so far up inside your abdomen it'll take a heart surgeon to get them out.
Orson Scott Card
Doesn't it make you wonder about your own sexual identity, not to mention your sanity, that the two women you love are, respectively, a virtual woman existing only in the transient ansible connections between computers and a woman whose soul is in fact that of a man who is the husband of your mother?
Orson Scott Card
You take a step, then another. That's the journey. But to take a step with your eyes open is not a journey at all, it's a remaking of your own mind.
Orson Scott Card
His vices were the vices of his time and culture, but his virtues transcended the milieu of his life.
Orson Scott Card
Where loyalty bound creatures together, they became something larger, something new and whole and inexplicable.
Orson Scott Card
A good working definition of fanaticism is that you are so convinced of your views and policies that you are sure that anyone who opposed them must be either stupid and decieved or have some ulterior motive. We are today a nation where almost everyone in the public eye displays fanaticism with every utterance.
