Terry Brooks
We must nurture and love, if life is to have any real meaning. But First we must find a way to survive against the things that prevent us from doing so.
Terry Brooks
After all, you put a lot into creating a universe and everything that goes with it, and it seems a shame to use it only once.
Terry Brooks
I have learned to do more with less, so you don't see the big books anymore.
Terry Brooks
When I was a kid, we had to rely on our imaginations for entertainment.
Terry Brooks
What kind of world permitted such terrible injustice, where good men were stripped of everything and soulless creatures of malice and hatred survived to glory in their pointless death?
Terry Brooks
