More quotes by R. A. Salvatore
I have come to know that it [death] is an important thing to keep in mind - not to complain or to make melancholy, but simply because only with the honest knowledge that one day I will die I can ever truly begin to live.
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

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

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

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
Writing a book for me, I expect, is very similar to the experience of reading the book for my readers.
R. A. Salvatore
I've spared with demons from the Nine Hells themselves, I shall barely break a sweat here today.
R. A. Salvatore
Never seem to have a Death Star lying around when you need one.” -Han Solo
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
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
A world without dragons is a world not worth living in.
R. A. Salvatore
I am no longer amazed by how quickly a man will justify his change of heart when a spear is leveled his way.
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
To view current events as a historian is to account for all perspectives, even those of your enemy
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
I'm trying to make all the characters change and grow, or regress.
