Roger Zelazny
Go and copulate with yon purple lizard.
Roger Zelazny
When your bow is broken and your last arrow spent, then shoot, shoot with your whole heart.
Roger Zelazny
When you are about to die, a wombat is better than no company at all.
Roger Zelazny

Roger Zelazny

Roger Zelazny

Roger Zelazny

Roger Zelazny
The absence of a monument can, in its own way, be something of a monument also.
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 day of battle dawned pink as the fresh-bitten thigh of a maiden.
Roger Zelazny
