Well,the fun part of being a writer is that it's like making a wonderful film, with no limit on my budget.

Robin Hobb
The fight isn't over until you win it, Fitz. That's all you have to remember. No matter what the other man says.
Robin Hobb
But a living is not a life.
Robin Hobb
When you spring to an idea, and decide it is truth, without evidence, you blind yourself to other possibilities.
Robin Hobb
Do you do this because you live such short lives? Tell yourselves wild tales of what might happen tomorrow, and feel all the feelings of events that will never happen? Perhaps to make up for the pasts you cannot recall, you invent futures that will not exist.
Robin Hobb
The fight isn't over until you win.
Robin Hobb
Perhaps having the courage to find a better path is having the courage to risk making new mistakes.
Robin Hobb
Don’t do what you can’t undo, until you’ve considered what you can’t do once you’ve done it.
