More quotes by Roger Zelazny
Time passed slowly, like and old man climbing a hill.
Roger Zelazny
The four points of the compass be logic, knowledge, wisdom and the unknown. Some do bow in that final direction. Others advance upon it. To bow before the one is to lose sight of the three. I may submit to the unknown, but never to the unknowable. The man who bows in that final direction is either a saint or a fool. I have no use for either.
Roger Zelazny
The power to hurt ... has evolved in a direct relationship to technological advancement.
Roger Zelazny
I know, too, that death is the only god who comes when you call.
Roger Zelazny
I walked among Shadows, and found a race of furry creatures, dark and clawed and fanged, reasonably manlike, and about as intelligent as a freshman in the high school of your choice-sorry, kids, but what I mean is they were loyal, devoted, honest, and too easily screwed by bastards like me and my brother. I felt like the dee-jay of your choice.
Roger Zelazny
Two days like icebergs bleak, blank, half-melting, all frigid, mainly out of sight, and definitely a threat to peace of mind drifted by and were good to put behind.
Roger Zelazny
Be warned, therefore, that one does not go to hell to light a cigarette.
Roger Zelazny
When inspiration is silent reason tires quickly.
Roger Zelazny
Of course it does not apply to me. I am the soul of honor, kindness, mercy and goodness. Trust me in all things.
Roger Zelazny
When you are about to die, a wombat is better than no company at all.
Roger Zelazny
Sleep is perhaps the only among life's great pleasures which need not be of short duration.
Roger Zelazny
Why could you not have left me as I was, in the sea of being? Because the world has need of your humility, your piety, your great teaching and your Machiavellian scheming.
Roger Zelazny
Once a Buddha, always a Buddha.
Roger Zelazny
I try to sit down at the typewriter four times a day, even if it's only five minutes, and write three sentences.
Roger Zelazny
The day of battle dawned pink as the fresh-bitten thigh of a maiden.
Roger Zelazny
Life is full of doors that don't open when you knock, equally spaced amid those that open when you don't want them to.
Roger Zelazny
The most difficult thing about Time, I have learned, is doing it.
Roger Zelazny
At the end of the season of sorrows comes the time of rejoicing. Spring, like a well-oiled clock, noiselessly indicates this time.
Roger Zelazny
The universe did not invent justice. Man did. Unfortunately, man must reside in the universe.
Roger Zelazny
It is a pain in the ass waiting around for someone to try to kill you.
Roger Zelazny
