More quotes by 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
A fool puts her hand into a hollow tree without finding out what's inside first.
Robert Jordan
It was easier to trip a fool than to knock him down.

Robert Jordan
We are always more afraid than we wish to be, but we can always be braver than we expect.
Robert Jordan

Robert Jordan
Strange clothes you wear, Child of the Dragon. Has the Wheel turned so far? Do the People of the Dragon return to the first Covenant? But you wear a sword. That is neither now nor then.
Robert Jordan
When you saw me with a dagger in hand - as if to throw at you - you didn't call for your guards. You didn't fear I was here to kill you. You looked over your shoulder to see what I was aiming at. That's the most loving gesture I think a man could receive from a woman. Unless you'd like to sit on my knee for a while.
Robert Jordan
The only man completely at peace is a man without a navel.
Robert Jordan
I've come to give you your gift back, Mordeth, Cauthon whispered. I consider our debt paid in full.
Robert Jordan
Trust is as slippery as a basket of eels sometimes.
Robert Jordan
In Shinear, a woman [is] safe anywhere, any time-except from Trollocs and Myrddraal, of course-and any man [will] die to see it so.
Robert Jordan
Let the Dragon ride again on the winds of time.
Robert Jordan
