The meekest of animals will fight bravely when it is backed against a wall, for it has nothing left to lose. A poor man is more deadly than a rich man because he puts less value on his own life.

More quotes by R. A. Salvatore
Writing a book for me, I expect, is very similar to the experience of reading the book for my readers.
R. A. Salvatore
I need no fantasies to belittle the great treasures that I already possess.
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
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
Writing is an incredibly lonely job.
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
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
Joy multiplies when it is shared among friends, but grief diminishes with every division. That is life.
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
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
The parry is wrong. - Drizzt Do'Urden
R. A. Salvatore
A world without dragons is a world not worth living in.
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
Change is not always growth, but growth is often rooted in change. Drizzt Do'Urden
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
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
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
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
There's way too much pain in this business for anyone who doesn't HAVE to write.
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.
