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.

Roger Zelazny
Image
When your bow is broken and your last arrow spent, then shoot, shoot with your whole heart.
Roger Zelazny
Image
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
Image
It is anticipation and recollection that fill the heart—never the sensation of the moment.
Roger Zelazny
Image
If the liberal arts do nothing else they provide engaging metaphors for the thinking they displace.
Roger Zelazny

If I get enough letters saying you never explained this or that, I suppose I'll have to write another book.

It would be nice if there were some one thing constant and unchanging in the universe. If there is such a thing, then it is a thing which would have to be stronger than love, and it is a thing which I do not know.
