More quotes by Robert Jordan
If you wish, you may call me Rand Sedai.
Robert Jordan
Better to face the bear than run from it.
Robert Jordan
The nobles and the noble Houses maneuver for advantage. They do things they think will help them, or hurt and enemy, or both. Usually, it's all done in secrecy, or if not, they try to make it seem as if they're doing something other than what they are.
Robert Jordan
To fight the raven you may make alliance with the serpent until the battle is done.
Robert Jordan
A woman's eyes cut deeper than a knife.
Robert Jordan
It is the enemy you underestimate who kills you.
Robert Jordan
We rode on the winds of the rising storm, We ran to the sounds of the thunder. We danced among the lightning bolts, and tore the world asunder.
Robert Jordan
The more women there are about, the softer a wise man steps.
Robert Jordan
If you pursue two hares, both will escape you.
Robert Jordan
Dovie'andi se tovya sagain!
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
If you have a sword, and the Aielman has his bare hands, it is an even fight. If you're good.
Robert Jordan
Jump in a hole without looking, and there'll be a snake in it every time.
Robert Jordan
There was a wild light in his eyes. Bring your lightnings, Aes Sedai. I will dance with them.
Robert Jordan
Only a fool thinks his enemies stand still when he isn't looking, my Lord Dragon.
Robert Jordan
Perrin, my father says a general can take care of the living or weep for the dead, but he cannot do both.
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 road ahead of you is long, dark, and, I very much fear, bloodstained. I also very much fear that you will take us all down that road. But you must live to reach the end of it.
Robert Jordan
Belief and order give strength. Have to clear rubble before you can build.
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.
