f9756ec He stood staring at the water as it rippled and calmed. It was the only thing Daylon could see that wasn't covered in death; all around him, the mud of the battlefield was awash in piss, shit, and blood, pieces of what had once been brave men, and the muck covered banners of fools. Raymond E. Feist
b23aea1 There are many ways to love someone. Sometimes we want to love so much, we're not too choosy about who we love. Other times we make love such a pure and noble thing, no poor human can ever meet our vision. But for the most part, love is a recognition, an opportunity to say, 'There is something about you I cherish. Raymond E. Feist
d6b5400 We are the music makers, We are the dreamers of dreams, Wandering by lone sea-breakers, And sitting by desolate streams-- World-losers and world-forsakers, On whom the pale moon gleams: We are the movers and shakers Of the world for ever, it seems. Raymond E. Feist

63137ed With a broad grin Amos said, "I'm Captain Trenchard! The Dagger of the Sea! I've sailed the Straits of Darkness on Midwinter's Day! My ship's the Raptor and I've taken her into the Seven Lower Hells, drunk ale with Kahooli, and sailed home again!" The men laughed and cheered at the boast. "My mother was a sea dragon, my father was lightning, and I dance a sailor's jig on my victim's skulls! I fought with the war god, and kissed death hersel.. Raymond E. Feist
c4c1ae4 Byvaet, chto liubov' obrushivaetsia na nas vnezapno, kak uragan s moria, no poroi rostki ee poiavliaiutsia iz semian druzhby i doveriia. Kto-to kogda-to skazal mne eti slova, i ia ikh zapomnila, no lish' teper' poniala, naskol'ko oni verny! Raymond E. Feist

ff886d5 Mara hoarsely found her voice. 'You will take no concubine.' Her tone did not indicate a question. And her husband's steely stillness became answer in itself, until he acknowledged the truth.

7d58f50 Days, when the ball of our vision Had eagles that flew unabashed to sun; When the grasp on the bow was decision, And arrow and hand and eye were one; When the Pleasures, like waves to a swimmer, Came heaving for rapture ahead!-- Invoke them, they dwindle, they glimmer As lights over mounds of the dead. --GEORGE MEREDITH "Ode to Youth in Memory" Raymond E. Feist
4e4c64c Had a nice grip on my life till you twisted my arm. Alkaline Trio
e5c09ee It is the difference between the unknown and the unknowable, between science and fantasy - it is a matter of essence. 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 n.. Roger Zelazny

c129415 His followers called him Mahasamatman and said he was a god. He preferred to drop the Maha- and the -atman, however, and called himself Sam. He never claimed to be a god. But then, he never claimed not to be a god. Circumstances being what they were, neither admission could be of any benefit. Silence, though, could. Roger Zelazny

df6dfc7 Dress Blacks mag-bind down the sides, leaving a smooth front whereon is displayed a green-blue-gray-white Earth insignia, about three inches in diameter, high up on the left breast; below, the symbol for one's department is worn, followed by the rank-sigil; on the right side goes every blessed bit of chicken manure that can be dreamt up to fake dignity--this, by the highly imaginative Office of Awards, Furbishments, Insig-niae, Symbols and ..

293b9dd What difference does it make whether you slay him or Horus slays him? He will be just as dead either way." Wakim pauses, apparently considering the matter, as if for the first time. "This thing is mission, not his." he says at length. "He will be just as dead, either way," Vramin repeats. "But not by my hand." "True. But I fail to see the distinction." "So do I, for that matter. But it is who have been charged with the task." "Perhaps H.. assassin authority autonomy master Roger Zelazny

7789a97 I watched until the sizzlecloud drew its legs up into itself, hung like a burning cocoon, then died like an ember retreating into ash. Suddenly, it was very dark and there was only the rain. Sunday Roger Zelazny
c4a23ca Two versions of the same face looking into blank screens, two very different minds thinking of things unsaid. Sometimes love is in silence. Roger Zelazny
00b88d5 All progress demands payment. These are the growing pains of which you speak, not the final results." "Fool! There is no such thing as progress! Not as you see it! What good are all the machines and ideas you unloose in their cultures, if you do not change the men themselves?" -- Roger Zelazny

98db36f Il volto quasi familiare diventa un fenomeno comune in una societa affollata ed in un continuo movimento. Penso talvolta che sia proprio cio che in ultima analisi rimane di noi: schemi di lineamenti, alcuni un po' piu persistenti degli altri, impressi sullo scorrere dei volti. (Il Boia torna a casa) Roger Zelazny
5be124c I wish that some time, long ago, something had not been said that was said, or something done that was not done. Something, had we known, which might have let him grow differently, something which would have seen him become another man than the bitter, bent thing I saw up there. It is best now if he is dead. But it is a waste of something that might have been. Roger Zelazny
bdb3eee I walked among Shadows, and found a race of furry creatures, dark and clawed and fanged, reasonably man-like, and about as intelligent as a freshman in the high school of your choice--sorry, kids, but what I mean is they were loyal, devoted, honest, and too easily screwed by bastards like me and my brother. I felt like the dee-jay of your choice. Roger Zelazny
