More quotes by Robert Jordan
Kill a man who needs killing, and sometimes others pay for it. The question is, was it worth doing it anyway? There's always a balance, you know. Good and evil. Light and Shadow. We would not be human if there wasn't a balance.
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

The Light willing, we will see one another again, Rand said. He held out his hand to Perrin. Watch out for Mat. I'm honestly not sure what he's going to do, but I have a feeling it will be highly dangerous for all involved. Not like us, Perrin said, clasping Rand's forearm. You and I, we're much better at keeping to the safe paths.
Robert Jordan

Belief and order give strength. Have to clear rubble before you can build.
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
What is too absurd to be believed is believed because it is too absurd to be a lie.
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
The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again.
Robert Jordan
Has anyone ever told you that you should wear a hat? It would fit the missing eye quite well.' -Kathana to Mat
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
You read too much and understand too little.
Robert Jordan
The leaf lives its appointed time, and does not struggle against the wind that carries it away. The leaf does no harm, and finally falls to nourish new leaves. So it should be with all men and women.
Robert Jordan
There are no clear paths. Only pitfalls and tripwires and darkness.
Robert Jordan
Stopping a man from what he wants to do is like taking a sweet from a child. Sometimes you have to do it, but sometimes it just isn't worth the trouble.
