Robert Jordan
Should and would build no bridges.
Robert Jordan
Sandar came to stand beside him, frowning down at the crumpled High Lord. He does not look so mighty lying there, he said wonderingly. He does not look so much greater than me.
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
The more bosom a woman displayed, the less she wanted you to look. Openly, at least.
Robert Jordan
Before I knew what was happening, I had a fistful of spears around my neck like a collar. I could have shaved myself with one sneeze.
Robert Jordan
The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow.
Robert Jordan
Rand al'Thor is a mule-headed, stone-willed fool of a...a...a man!
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.

The wheel weaves as the wheel wills
Robert Jordan

Robert Jordan
If you ask the lion to protect from from wolves, you have only chosen to end in one belly instead of another.
Robert Jordan
If it hurts too much, make it hurt someone else instead.
Robert Jordan
Jump in a hole without looking, and there'll be a snake in it every time.
Robert Jordan
Pessimism, she is a fond friend of yours, yes? - That's uncalled for. I barely know her. Mere acquaintances, at best.
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
A spoonful of hope and a cup of despair
Robert Jordan
Often you don't know whether a woman is friend, enemy or lover until it is too late. Sometimes, she is all three.
Robert Jordan
There was a wild light in his eyes. Bring your lightnings, Aes Sedai. I will dance with them.
