More quotes by Robert Jordan
Better to have one woman on your side than ten men.
Robert Jordan
Prophecy is most dangerous when you try to make it happen... The Pattern weaves itself around you, but when you try to weave it, even you cannot hold it.
Robert Jordan
I've seen men die because they were sure that what should not happen,would not. -Robert Jordan(The eye of the world,Wheel of time)
Robert Jordan
Come to think of it, an Aes Sedai would probably follow a man off a cliff, too, if only to explain to him - in detail - all the things he was doing incorrectly in the way he went about killing himself.
Robert Jordan
On a day of fire and blood, a tattered banner waved above Dumai's wells, bearing the ancient symbol of Aes Sedai. On a day of fire and blood and the one power, as prophecy had suggested, the unstained tower, broken, bent knee to the forgotten sign. The first nine Aes Sedai swore fealty to the Dragon Reborn, and the world was changed forever.
Robert Jordan
Never gamble without knowing a back way out.
Robert Jordan
Facing them (men) with knives and spears was much easier than loving them, much easier.
Robert Jordan
As the Wheel of Time turns, places wear many names. Men wear many names, many faces. Different faces, but always the same man. Yet no one knows the Great Pattern the Wheel weaves, or even the Pattern of an Age. We can only watch, and study, and hope.
Robert Jordan
Better to try understanding the sun than a woman.
Robert Jordan
Even fools say something worthwhile now and again. Even a blind pig finds an acorn sometimes.
Robert Jordan
The only way was forward, whatever lay at the end.
Robert Jordan
It was easier to trip a fool than to knock him down.
Robert Jordan
Nobody tells us how to be men. We just are.
Robert Jordan
No. Please do not name either child after me, Elayne. Let them live their own lives. My shadow will be long enough as it is.' -Rand
Robert Jordan
The wheel of a man's life. No mercy. No pity.
Robert Jordan
From the time an Aiel boy becomes a man he will not sing anything but battle chants, or their dirge for the slain. I have heard them singing over their dead, and over those they have killed. That song is one to make the stones weep.
Robert Jordan
Two hands. One to destroy, the other to save. Which had he lost?
Robert Jordan
The only way to live is to die. I must die. I deserve only death.
Robert Jordan
You have made a place in my heart where I thought there was no room for anything else. You have made flowers grow where I cultivated dust and stones. Remember this, on this journey you insist on making. If you die, I will not survive you long.
Robert Jordan
To anger an Aes Sedai is to put your head in a hornets' nest.
Robert Jordan
