More quotes by Robert Jordan
If you try putting a woman on a horse when she does not want to go, she may put a knife in your ribs.
Robert Jordan
The Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills, Perrin. We've become what we needed to become.- Rand Al'Thor
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 Black Tower stands with the Lion of Andor. -Logain

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

Robert Jordan
If wishes were wings, pigs would fly.
Robert Jordan
I can rest when I'm dead.
Robert Jordan
A cat for a hat, or a hat for a cat. But nothing for nothing.
Robert Jordan
Duty is heavier than a mountain, Dai Shan.' That time, Lan did flinch. How long had it been since someone had been able to do that to him with mere words? He remembered teaching that same concept to a youth out of the Two Rivers. A sheepherder, innocent of the world, fearful of the fate laid out before him by the Pattern.
Robert Jordan
Even a queen stubs her toe, but a wise woman watches the path.
Robert Jordan
