Strygalldwir is my name. Conjure with it and I will eat your heart and liver. Conjure with it? I can't even pronounce it, and my cirrhosis would give you indigestion.

Roger Zelazny
Once a Buddha, always a Buddha.
Roger Zelazny
I'm a lost soul. We do wail.
Roger Zelazny
Time passed slowly, like and old man climbing a hill.
Roger Zelazny
Sleep is perhaps the only among life's great pleasures which need not be of short duration.
Roger Zelazny
Even a mirror will not show you yourself, if you do not wish to see.
Roger Zelazny
When you are about to die, a wombat is better than no company at all.
Roger Zelazny
The absence of a monument can, in its own way, be something of a monument also.
Roger Zelazny
There's no such thing as civilization. The word just means the art of living in cities.
Roger Zelazny
There are none of you, good doctors, could cope with my family anyway.
