Writing is an incredibly lonely job.
R. A. Salvatore
Luck? Drizzt replied. Perhaps. But more often, I dare to say, luck is simply the advantage a true warrior gains in excuting the correct course of action.
R. A. Salvatore
Joy multiplies when it is shared among friends, but grief diminishes with every division. That is life.
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
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
I will always love you Drizzt Do'Urden my life was full and without regret because I knew you and was completed by you. Sleep well, my love.
R. A. Salvatore
The most common criticism that I've seen is that I write popcorn fantasy: lightweight action-adventure. Some people call it that as they explain why they love it for exactly that reason. I'm cool with that, either way. I just nod and let it go.
R. A. Salvatore
In the past, TSR and now Wizards of the Coast have asked me to do game stats for my characters, and I'm never comfortable doing that. It's all relative after all.
R. A. Salvatore
Because of the friends I have known, the honorable people I have met, I know I am no solitary hero of unique causes. I know now that when I die, I will live on. That which is important will live on. This is my Legacy and by the grace of the gods, I am not alone.
R. A. Salvatore
It is more difficult by far to be independent of our own inner shackles than it is of the shackles that others might place upon us.
R. A. Salvatore
Follow your heart, minute by minute and day by day. Let the course of the river run as it will, instead of tying yourself up in fears that you may never realize Wulfgar
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
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
I didn't and don't go to Internet for any business purposes. The book sales for me by this point are way beyond any influence I might have, positively, or others might have, negatively.
R. A. Salvatore
There's way too much pain in this business for anyone who doesn't HAVE to write.
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
i will follow it, though i know so well now the deep wounds i might find. for as long as i believe that i am walking the true road, if i am slain, then i die in the knowledge that for a brief time, at least, i was part of somethin bigger. this road has perils and i will surely die on it,but, i am not afraid to die.
R. A. Salvatore
Never seem to have a Death Star lying around when you need one.” -Han Solo
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
