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.

Robert Jordan
You trouble me so, Rand al'Thor. Light, sometimes I think the Creator made you just to trouble me.
Robert Jordan
You will serve the Cyrstal Throne well. It would be a shame to see you assassinated too early. I will make certain that the first I send after you are newly trained, so that you may stop them with ease. -General Galgan to Mat
Robert Jordan

Robert Jordan
Nobody tells us how to be men. We just are.
Robert Jordan
Care for the living. I'll weep for the dead later. - Perrin Aybara
Robert Jordan
Thank you, the young mother said again. Thank you. The Black Tower protects, Logain heard himself say. Always. I will send him to you to be tested when he is of age, the woman promised, holding her son. I would have him join you, if he has the talent. The talent. Not the curse. The talent.
Robert Jordan
