More quotes by 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
If you wish, you may call me Rand Sedai.
Robert Jordan
Come to think of it, an Aes Sedai would probably follow a man off a cliff, too, if only to explain to him - in detail - all the things he was doing incorrectly in the way he went about killing himself.
Robert Jordan
Hammer the iron that lies on your anvil instead of daydreaming about working silver.
Robert Jordan
Reading is like breathing. If you take it away, first I become antsy, then violent.
Robert Jordan
For the young, death is an enemy they wish to try their strength against. For those of us a little older, she is an old friend, an old lover, but one we are not eager to meet again soon.
Robert Jordan
A man falling off a cliff to certain death will stretch out a hand even to his worst enemy.
Robert Jordan
The Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills, Perrin. We've become what we needed to become.- Rand Al'Thor
Robert Jordan
A gnarled old branch dulls the blade that severs a sapling.
Robert Jordan
Better to face the bear than run from it.
Robert Jordan

Robert Jordan
Pride fills me. I am sick with the pride that destroyed me.
Robert Jordan
The end is near, Moridin said. The Wheel has groaned its final rotation, the clock has lost its spring, the serpent heaves its final gasps.
Robert Jordan
We are always more afraid than we wish to be, but we can always be braver than we expect.
Robert Jordan
The rose petal floats on water. The kingfisher flashes above the pond. Life and beauty swirl in the midst of death.
Robert Jordan
A spoonful of hope and a cup of despair
Robert Jordan
The best lie is often one too ridiculous to be taken for a lie.
Robert Jordan
There were many good years. Good decades, good centuries. We believed we were living in paradise. Perhaps that was our downfall. We wanted our lives to be perfect, so we ignored imperfections. Problems were magnified through inattention and war might have become inevitable if the Bore hadn't ever made.
