More quotes by Terry Brooks
Hurt leads to bitterness, bitterness to anger, travel too far that road and the way is lost.
Terry Brooks
She has her gown nicely in place tonight, doesn't she? Black velvet and sparkles, not a thread left hanging. Clever girl, this city. Even the sky is her friend.
Terry Brooks
The future is an ever-shifting maze of possibilities until it becomes the present. The future I have shown you tonight is not yet fixed. But it is more likely to become so with the passing of every day because nothing is being done to turn it aside. If you would change it, do as I have told you.
Terry Brooks
Cats can do whatever they want, whenever they want, without regard to what anyone says or does. Rather like Princesses.

Terry Brooks
If you don't think there is magic in writing, you probably won't write anything magical.
Terry Brooks
A cat never discusses his business with humans, not even Princesses. A cat never explains and never apologizes. A cat never alibis. You must accept a cat as it is and for what it is and not expect more than the pleasure of its company.
Terry Brooks
The Golden Compass is one of the best fantasy / adventure stories that I have read. This is a book no one should miss.
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
It's better to die in pursuit of your dreams than to live a life without hope.
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
Herein lies the heart and soul of the nations. Their right to be free men, Their desire to live in peace, Their courage to seek out truth, Herein lies the Sword of Shannara.
