| 8d02f2f | It was a night where the rogue drow felt tiny, and yet grand, a part of something ancient, eternal, and as vast as his imagination and as warm as the love among these five freinds surrounding him ... | feelings-of-love friends | R.A. Salvatore | |
| f73ce59 | In my stubborn youth, I believed that I could stand alone, that I was strong enough to conquer my enemies with sword and with principles. Arrogance convinced me that by sheer determination, I could conquer helplessness itself. Stubborn and foolish youth, I must admit, for when I look back on those years now, I see quite clearly that rarely did I stand alone and rarely did I have to stand alone. Always there were friends, true and dear, lend.. | fantasy forgotten-realms friendship principles | R.A. Salvatore | |
| 35457d5 | In the goblin tongue, knowing from the book that Hephaestus spoke it but hoping that the dragon wouldn't know he knew, Drizzt yelled, "When the stupid dragon follows me out, come out and get the rest!" Hephaestus skidded to a stop and spun about, eyeing the low tunnel that led to the mines. The stupid dragon was in a frightful fit, wanting to munch on the imposing drow but fearing a robbery from behind... ...In the end, Hephaestus settled t.. | humor | R.A. Salvatore | |

| a3212d1 | There are no shadows in the Underdark. There is no room for imagination in the Underdark. It is a place for alertness, but not aliveness, a place with no room for hopes and dreams. | hope imagination shadows | R.A. Salvatore | |
| 6915116 | For what are we left with if there remains no mystery? What hope might we find if we know all of the answers? | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 19a7e6c | It is a defeat of the spirit to learn one's arrogance causes such loss and pain. Pride invites you to soar to heights and the footing, tentative. farther, then, is the fall. | pride | R.A. Salvatore | |
| 0c0bff2 | Hindsight, I think, is a useless tool. We, each of us, are at a place in our lives because of innumerable circumstances, and we, each of us, have a responsibility, if we do not like where we are, to move along life's road, to find a better path if this one does not suit, or to walk happily along this one if it is indeed our life's way. Changing even the bad things that have gone before would fundamentally change who we now are, and whether .. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 3c6a5f7 | Are we then creatures of action? Do we say that we desire those accepted cliches of comfort when, in fact, it is the challenge and the adventure that truly give us life? | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| bc21dd8 | We seek goals as if their achievement will grant magical happiness and unending fulfillment, but is that ever the case? | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 375e617 | Catti-brie didn't blink, barely drew breath. She was thinking how noble this drow had been. So many other men would not have asked questions, would have taken advantage of the situation. And would that have been such a bad thing? the young woman had to ask herself now. Her feelings for Drizzt were deep and real, a bond of friendship and love. Would it have been such a bad thing if he had made love to her in that room? Yes, she decided, for .. | friendship love romance | R.A. Salvatore | |
| 585aafc | No, I say. Because I cannot. I cannot dismiss that which is in my heart and conscience. I am a creature of intelligence and reason. I know what actions please me and put me at ease, and which pain me. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| fcfec82 | Cook another feast,' Bruenor grumbled. 'Suren the elf has his eye fixed on another wedding." Drizzt let it go at that. Maybe there was a ring of truth in Bruenor's words for some distant date. No longer did Drizzt limit his hopes and desires. He would see the world as he could and draw his choices from his wishes, not from limitations he might impose upon himself. For now, though, Drizzt had found something too personal to be shared. For th.. | love peace | R.A. Salvatore | |
| ccaf8cf | Drizzt halted before the throne and bowed low. The sight of Regis standing beside the wizard disturbed him more than a little, | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 3d57bb8 | I came to learn that sometimes the most difficult battles are the ones we are forced not to fight. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| e3d5f97 | If I offer my hand to another and he takes it, do I not also have his hand? We are stronger together, but only if the bond of friendship travels from both hands. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 0bb714e | I will never forget that you came for me, Drizzt Do'Urden," Entreri called after him, and for some reason he didn't quite yet understand, those words filled Drizzt's heart." -- | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| c105fb9 | Nothing pains a liar more than when an opponent turns one of his lies into truth. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 4f03c19 | Pride invites you to soar to heights of personal triumph, but the wind is stronger at those heights and the footing, tentative. Farther, then, is the fall. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 4e4cac7 | It never ceased to amaze him how most nobles considered themselves so much better than the people they ruled, even though that rule was always no more than an accident of birth. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 1b6f764 | Cats?" Bruenor gawked at Regis. "Ye brought cats?" Regis smiled and shifted his head in his hands. "You know a better way to get rid of mice?" | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| de52c19 | Es la compasion, no el miedo, lo que crea armonia en la mayoria de las razas, y es la armonia -la union para conseguir metas compartidas- lo que precede a la grandeza. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| f1975d4 | Keep him well," the dwarf finished with a wink, and he slammed the door with a bang. "He hates my door," the wizard lamented." | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| bbcc4c3 | In the dim light of Twinkle's glow, their skin colors lost in a common gray, they seemed alike, brethren come from the same mold. Entreri approved of that perception, but Drizzt surely did not. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| ff7bd30 | Perhaps we will meet again and do battle, and if I kill him, I will shed no tears for him. Not for who he is, at least, but quite possibly, I will cry for who this marvelous warrior might have become. If I kill him, I will be crying for myself. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| e1a52e6 | To bask in the present, care nothing about the future, and forget the past. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 8cbb510 | I know not yet where I hope to go, what challenges are left before me, but I do understand now that the important thing is to enjoy the process of getting there. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 125a156 | A man who lives a lie will soon enough be consumed by it, | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| ced05b2 | The past no longer exists, and the future does not yet exist," Morik reasoned. "So live in the present and enjoy it, my friend. Enjoy every moment." | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| dc3bba7 | For there is no perfect strike, no perfect defense, no perfect form. The word itself defines a state that cannot be improved, but such is not the case, is never the case with muscle and mind and technique. So there is no state of perfection, but to seek it is not folly, nay, for it is that very seeking, the relentless journey, which defines the quality of the warrior. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| eea8bd4 | They live with the belief that anything is acceptable if you can get away with it, that self-gratification is the most important aspect of existence, and that power comes only to she or he who is strong enough and cunning enough to snatch it from the failing hands of those who no longer deserve it. Compassion has no place in Menzoberranzan, and yet it is compassion, not fear, that brings harmony to most races. It is harmony, working toward .. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| c4df62a | For I do not want a god to tell me how to behave. I do not want a god to guide my movements and actions--nay. Nor do I want a god's rules to determine that which I know to be right or to outlaw that which I know to be wrong. For I surely do not need to fear the retribution of a god to keep my path aligned with what is in my heart. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 6361a85 | Play for the day," he told himself. "Win the day, each day, and so you will win the war." | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| c580174 | Two-hands," Zak said more emphatically. Matron Malice motioned for him to continue, unable to deny the grace of her youngest son's display. "Could you do it again?" Zak asked Drizzt. With each hand working independently, Drizzt soon had the coins stacked atop his index fingers, ready to flip. Zak stopped him there and pulled out four more coins, building each of the piles five high. Zak paused a moment to study the concentration of the youn.. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 071cef6 | Wszyscy jestesmy w tym czy innym momencie naszego zycia wiezniami, wzgledem siebie lub wzgledem wymagan tych, ktorzy nas otaczaja. Jest to brzemie, ktorego wszyscy doswiadczaja, ktorym wszyscy pogardzaja i przed ktorym niewielu nauczylo sie uciekac. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 540a4f4 | To think that all we've known to be true is not necessarily an absolute is unsettling and almost incomprehensible, and so to walk the road of acceptance and peace often takes more courage than the way of the warrior. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 392e5f6 | No, what keeps Captain Deudermont safe is his ability to show respect for anyone he meets. He is a man of charm, who holds well his personal pride. He grants respect at the outset of a meeting and continues that respect until the person forfeits it. This is very different than the way most people view the world. Most people insist that respect has to be earned, and with many, I have come to observe, earning it is no easy task! | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| 35b4477 | We like to keep what's our own to keep, especially from little thieves with little fingers and big mouths. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| df23fb3 | Though many would seek short cuts to the truth, there is no way around the simplest of tenets: hardship begets achievement and achievement begets joy--true joy, and the sense of accomplishment that defines who we are as thinking beings. | R.A. Salvatore | ||
| ea4c2c9 | It is right and necessary and important to set goals and chase them. But to do so singularly, particularly regarding those roads which will take many months, even years, to accomplish is to miss the bigger point. It is the journey that is important, for it is the sum of all those journeys, planned or unexpected, that makes us who we are. If you see life as a journey to death, if you truly understand that ultimate goal, then it is the presen.. | R.A. Salvatore |
