Roger Zelazny
There's no such thing as civilization. The word just means the art of living in cities.
Roger Zelazny
The absence of a monument can, in its own way, be something of a monument also.
Roger Zelazny
Even a mirror will not show you yourself, if you do not wish to see.
Roger Zelazny
The day of battle dawned pink as the fresh-bitten thigh of a maiden.
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
Good-bye and hello, as always.
