More quotes by 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
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
A man who trusts everyone is a fool and a man who trusts no one is a fool. We are all fools if we live long enough.
Robert Jordan
Men always seem to refuse to admit they are sick until they're sick enough to make twice as much work for women. Then they claim they're well too soon, with the same result.
Robert Jordan
From the time an Aiel boy becomes a man he will not sing anything but battle chants, or their dirge for the slain. I have heard them singing over their dead, and over those they have killed. That song is one to make the stones weep.
Robert Jordan
Yes, I'm alive, Mat said. I'm usually pretty good at staying alive. I've only failed one time that I can remember, and it hardly counts.
Robert Jordan
Wounds to the pride are remembered long after wounds to the flesh.
Robert Jordan
What is too absurd to be believed is believed because it is too absurd to be a lie.
Robert Jordan
Men forget, but never forgive women forgive, but never forget.
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
You have to understand, child. Everyone wants someone in their life, someone who cares for them, someone they can care for. Even a queen.
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
When there are fish heads and blood in the water, you don't need to see the silverpike to know they are there.
Robert Jordan
Only a fool thinks his enemies stand still when he isn't looking, my Lord Dragon.
Robert Jordan
A spoonful of hope and a cup of despair
Robert Jordan
One pretty woman means fun at the dance. Two pretty women means trouble in the house. Three pretty women means run at the hills.
Robert Jordan
Sleep well and wake, Rand al'Thor.
Robert Jordan
To fight the raven you may make alliance with the serpent until the battle is done.
Robert Jordan
Trust is as slippery as a basket of eels sometimes.
Robert Jordan
If you have a sword, and the Aielman has his bare hands, it is an even fight. If you're good.
Robert Jordan
