More quotes by Robert Jordan
Sometimes six and six make a dozen, and sometimes they make a mess
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
May Your Swords Stay Sharp! - Lan Pendragon
Robert Jordan

Robert Jordan
Men always seem to refuse to admit they are sick until they're sick enough to make twice as much work for women. Then they claim they're well too soon, with the same result.
Robert Jordan
A man must know when to retreat from a woman, but a wise man knows that sometimes he must stand and face her.
Robert Jordan
Perrin, my father says a general can take care of the living or weep for the dead, but he cannot do both.
Robert Jordan
Tonight you will eat fish. Tomorrow, you may die.
Robert Jordan
The wheel of a man's life. No mercy. No pity.
Robert Jordan
Nobody tells us how to be men. We just are.
Robert Jordan
If you wish, you may call me Rand Sedai.
Robert Jordan
You're welcome in my house when this is over. We'll open a cask of Master al'Vere's best brandy. We'll remember those who fell, and we'll tell our children how we stood when the clouds turned black and the world started to die. We'll tell them we stood shoulder to shoulder, and there was just no space for the Shadow to squeeze through.
Robert Jordan
When a woman says she will obey you, of her own will, it is time to sleep lightly and watch your back.
