More quotes by Sergei Lukyanenko
When people love each other, when they find each other out of thousands and millions of people. It's always destiny.
Sergei Lukyanenko
A writer who wants to be translated and published abroad faces a very difficult challenge: first of all, he must make sure that his book is cosmopolitan in the best sense of the word, that it is interesting to a global audience. Nobody is going to read about problems that they don’t care about.
Sergei Lukyanenko
The common good and the individual good rarely coincide.
Sergei Lukyanenko
It's great to be excited by your profession, whether you are a doctor or a writer. I started writing books when I was in medical school and, by the time I graduated, I realized that writing was more exciting to me than being a doctor. And if I tried to be a doctor and a writer, then both would suffer.
Sergei Lukyanenko
That's the way it goes sometimes: in order to help your friends, first you have to help your enemy. Better get used to it.
Sergei Lukyanenko
If you have love in you, it's a strength. But if you are in love, it's a weakness.
Sergei Lukyanenko
Evil has no need to bother with eliminating Good. It's far simpler to let Good fight against itself.
Sergei Lukyanenko
What was my truth worth, if I was prepared to defend the entire world, but not those who were close to me? If I subdued hate, but wouldn't give love a chance?
Sergei Lukyanenko
All we can do is try not to fall.
Sergei Lukyanenko
At home the very walls lend you strength.
Sergei Lukyanenko
When there are strange things going on all around, every coincidence should be considered very carefully.
Sergei Lukyanenko
What an unfortunate instrument the guitar is! An instrument of such great nobility, a genuine monarch of music-- reduced to a pitiful lump of wood with six strings, constantly abused by people with no ear and no voice.
Sergei Lukyanenko
This is the inevitable consequence of a popular movie: you become the guy who wrote the book that inspired the movie. Frankly speaking, I find it a bit insulting.
Sergei Lukyanenko
If age teaches you anything, then one of its lessons is certainly not to hurry if you're already late.
Sergei Lukyanenko
Czech beer in bottles is the corpse of real beer in a glass coffin.
Sergei Lukyanenko
Generally speaking, we can and should say everything. We just have to choose the right time, otherwise the truth can be worse than a lie.
Sergei Lukyanenko
One day you will hear the sound of time rustling as it slips through your fingers like sand. Remember me then. I wish you luck.
Sergei Lukyanenko
A car's not the right place for showing off to a girl—the bed's the place for that. The consequences of a mistake there are more upsetting, but less tragic.
Sergei Lukyanenko
Love is happiness, but only when you believe it will last forever. Even though every time it turns out to be a lie, it’s only faith that gives love its strength and its joy.
Sergei Lukyanenko
Love was something different. Love was pure delight, a fountain of emotions, sensual delights, and enjoying spending time together.
Sergei Lukyanenko
