More quotes by Robert Jordan
Facing them (men) with knives and spears was much easier than loving them, much easier.
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
Tonight you will eat fish. Tomorrow, you may die.
Robert Jordan
These? Mat said, gesturing to his coat and shirt. I really have no idea. They were just down there. I'm completely baffled. He had been very pleased to learn that Seanchan guards-for all their stoic expressions and too-straight backs-responded to bribes like other people.
Robert Jordan
We are always more afraid than we wish to be, but we can always be braver than we expect.
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
I will hate the man you choose because he isn't me, and love him if he makes you smile.
Robert Jordan
Men forget, but never forgive women forgive, but never forget.
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
What you want is what you cannot have. What you cannot have is what you want.
Robert Jordan
It's not evil, Rand. I know something evil when I smell it. This isn't evil, it's just incredibly stupid.
Robert Jordan
Life is a dream from which we all must wake before we can dream again.
Robert Jordan
If you can't hide what you are going to do, do it so everybody thinks you are a fool.
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
Demandred blocked Lan's attack but he breathed hoarsely. Who are you? Demandred whispered again. No one of this Age has such skill. Asmodean? No, no. He couldn't have fought me like this. Lews Therin? It is you behind that face, isn't it? I am just a man, Lan whispered. That is all I have ever been.
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
Better to face the bear than run from it.
Robert Jordan
Tuon's eyes snapped open, and despite the dim light, she focused directly on Mat. She saw the knife in his hand, ready to throw. Then she looked over her shoulder.
Robert Jordan
It was easier to be brave when someone needed your protection.
Robert Jordan
If you must mount the gallows, give a jest to the crowd, a coin the hangman, and make the drop with a smile on your lips.
Robert Jordan
