Follow your heart, minute by minute and day by day. Let the course of the river run as it will, instead of tying yourself up in fears that you may never realize" Wulfgar

I don't have to prove my worth and value to any but those I love, and that I do by being who I am, with confidence that those I love appreciate the good and accept the bad. Does anything else really matter?

Because in fantasy perhaps more than in any other genre, the character is rewarded for making the right choices and punished for making the bad. Ask Boromir.

A world without dragons is a world not worth living in.

Because everything of value that we will know in this life comes from our relationships with those around us. Because there is nothing material that measures against the intangibles of love and friendship.

First blood is mine. Last blood counts for more. --Artemis Entreri and Drizzt Do'Urden

Never confuse honor with stupidity!

There is a wide world out there, full of pain, but filled with joy as well. The former keeps you on the path of growth and the latter makes the journey tolerable.

A king is a man strong of character and conviction who leads by example and truly cares for the suffering of his people,not a brute who rules simply because he is the strongest.

A span of a few heartbeats can make for a greater memory than the sum of a mundane year.-Catti-brie

Artemis Entreri: Do not underestimate Jarlaxle. Many have; they all are dead.

It is more difficult by far to be independent of our own inner shackles than it is of the shackles that others might place upon us.

There is a difference between finding trouble in your path and going out of your way searching for it.” -Jacen Solo

Never seem to have a Death Star lying around when you need one.” -Han Solo

The gods of the realms are many and varied -- or they are the many and varied names and identities tagged onto the same being. I know not -- and care not -- which.

...a third [of three] had died in his bunk of natural causes--for a dagger in the heart quite naturally ends one's life.

I will always love you Drizzt Do'Urden my life was full and without regret because I knew you and was completed by you. Sleep well, my love.

Take your love and your pleasure as you find it. Do not worry so much of the future that you let today pass you by. you are happy. need you know more than that?

Beware the engineers of society, I say, who would make everyone in all the world equal. Opportunitty should be equal, must be equal, but achievement must remain individual. - Drizzt Do'Urden

No one will ever write a fantasy novel better than The Hobbit.

I am no longer amazed by how quickly a man will justify his change of heart when a spear is leveled his way.

Where in the Nine Hells did you ever get the notion I would fight fair?" Drizzt Do'Urden

Farewell, my friend," Drizzt whispered, trying futilely to keep his voice from breaking. :This journey you make alone.

I've spared with demons from the Nine Hells themselves, I shall barely break a sweat here today.

Drizzt had always suspected it, but now it was confirmed, that "welcome" was his favortie word in the Common Tongue, and a word, he understood with no equivalent in the language of the drow.

Every day is a chance to start over. Any day can be bad, surely, but any day can be good, can be great, and that promise, that potential, is a beautiful thing indeed.

To grant the power of a weapon master to anyone at all, without effort, without training and proof that the lessons have taken hold, is to deny the responsibility that comes with such power.

Nostalgia is possibly the greatest of the lies that we all tell ourselves. It is the glossing of the past to fit the sensibilities of the present.

There is no way of truly knowing where a road will lead until it is walked.

To learn how to use a sword, one must first master when to use a sword.

Why do ye care," elf? Athrogate asked him. "I do not know," came Jarlaxle's honest response.

Nothing burns in your heart like the emptiness of losing something, someone, before you truly have learned of its value.

To Han Solo, the galaxy seemed a more dangerous place by far.

For life is experience, and longevity is, in the end, measured by memory, and those with a thousand tales to tell have indeed lived longer than any who embrace the mundane." -Drizzt Do'Urden

...and a third had died in his bunk of natural causes-- for a dagger in the heart quite naturally ends one's life

Beware the engineers of society, I say, who would make everyone in all the world equal. Opportunity should be equal, must be equal, but achievement must remain individual.

We - at least we of sincere character - always judge ourselves by stricter standards than we expect others to abide by.

One never knows when one might walk into a tale." - Ardaz

To lose is to die! You may win a thousand fights, but you can only lose one!

Sometimes the most difficult battles are the ones we are forced not to fight.

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.

What is it about your race that none of you can seem to properly weigh your own value? Every human seems to think more of herself than she should, or less of herself than is sensible!

Make yer laughs where ye can, little one, because yer tears’ll chase ye and catch ye where they will.

There is a wide world out there, my friend, full of pain, but filled with joy as well. The former keeps you on the path of growth, and the latter makes the journey tolerable.

The character of the person would outweigh the color of his skin and the reputation of his heritage.

Joy multiples when it is shared among friends, but grief diminishes with every division. That is life.

There is indeed reward for those who follow the path of conscience,

Only with the honest knowledge that one day I will die can I ever truly begin to live.

This is my fear, of a life wasted, of a cause misbegotten, of a belief that is, in the end, an empty and unattainable ideal, the foolish designs of an innocent child who believed there could be more.

Here have been many times in my life when I have felt helpless. It is perhaps the most acute pain a person can know, founded in frustration and ventless rage.
