More quotes by R. A. Salvatore
We are all prisoners at one time or another in our lives, prisoners to ourselves or to the expectations of those around us. It is a burden that all people endure, that all people despise, and that few people ever learn to escape.
R. A. Salvatore
To view current events as a historian is to account for all perspectives, even those of your enemy
R. A. Salvatore
We need to be reminded sometimes that a sunrise last but a few minutes. But its beauty can burn in our hearts eternally.
R. A. Salvatore
To grant the power of a weapon master to anyone at all, without effort, without training and proof that the lessons have taken hold, is to deny the responsibility that comes with such power.
R. A. Salvatore
I've spared with demons from the Nine Hells themselves, I shall barely break a sweat here today.
R. A. Salvatore
It is better, I think, to grab at the stars than to sit flustered because you know you cannot reach them.
R. A. Salvatore
But what of faith? What of fidelity and loyalty? Complete trust? Faith is not granted by tangible proof. It comes from the heart and the soul. If a person needs proof of god's existence, then the very notion of spirituality is diminished into sensuality and we have reduced what is holy into what is logical.-Drizzt Do'urden
R. A. Salvatore
Farewell is said by the living, in life, every day. It is said with love and friendship, with the affirmation that the memories are lasting if the flesh is not.
R. A. Salvatore
Definitely they write themselves. It's an amazing experience. It's like the characters have come alive and are sitting on my shoulder talking to me, telling me their tales.
R. A. Salvatore
Whenever you're writing a book or creating a movie or a game, your first task is to get the reader to suspend disbelief, to buy into the logic and boundaries of your world, even though those boundaries might include things like dragons and magic.
R. A. Salvatore
I am sorry, was all Drizzt could quietly mouth. Vierna shook her head, refusing any apology. To Drizzt, it seemed as if that buried part of her that was Zaknafein Do'Urden's daughter approved of this ending.
R. A. Salvatore
A world without dragons is a world not worth living in.
R. A. Salvatore
No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith.
R. A. Salvatore
How many people long for that past, simpler, and better world, I wonder, without ever recognizing the truth that perhaps it was they who were simpler and better, and not the world about them?
R. A. Salvatore
Also, there are authors and publicists using the Internet to manipulate opinion, both positively for a work and negatively against the competition. I don't do this and can't stomach it, honestly.
R. A. Salvatore
These were the companions who justified my principles, who gave me the strength to continue against any foe, real or imagined. These were the companions who fought the helplessness, the rage, and frustration. These were the friends who gave me my life.
R. A. Salvatore
Change is not always growth, but growth is often rooted in change. Drizzt Do'Urden
R. A. Salvatore
The gods of the realms are many and varied -- or they are the many and varied names and identities tagged onto the same being. I know not -- and care not -- which.
R. A. Salvatore
There's way too much pain in this business for anyone who doesn't HAVE to write.
R. A. Salvatore
Writing is an incredibly lonely job.
R. A. Salvatore
