Orson Scott Card
My hands are clean, but not because I wasn't prepared to bloody them.
Orson Scott Card
I've seen Australia and I've lived on an asteroid and I'd take the asteroid.
Orson Scott Card
I'll have that someday, thought Peter. Someone who'll kiss me good-bye at the door. Or maybe just someone to put a blindfold over my head before they shoot me. Depending on how things turn out.
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
How clever of me. I have found such a pathway into hell that I can never get back out.
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
You can’t answer what I said, so you’re going to talk about my saying it.
Orson Scott Card
