“-Adiós, Braenn. Salud y cuídate. Vive, Braenn, vive tan largo como tu árbol. Como Brokilón. Y otra cosa...
-¿Sí, Gwynbleidd?
-Fácil es matar con un arco, muchacha. Y también fácil es soltar la cuerda y pensar que no soy yo, no soy yo, que es la flecha. En mis manos no hay sangre de ese muchacho. La flecha lo mató, no yo. Pero la flecha no sueña nada por la noche. Que tú tampoco sueñes nada por la noche, dríada de ojos azules. Adiós, Braenn.”

“It did not have the makings of a cozy situation for anyone but Mordred, who seems to relish being hated for the love of being hated.”

“The tears of the world are a constant quantity. For each one who begins to weep somewhere else another stops. The same is true of the laugh. Let us not then speak ill of our generation, it is not any unhappier than its predecessors. Let us not speak well of it either. Let us not speak of it at all. (Pause. Judiciously.) (It is true the population has increased.”

“If I were to be made a knight," said the Wart, staring dreamily into the fire, "I should insist on doing my vigil by myself, as Hob does with his hawks, and I should pray to God to let me encounter all the evil in the world in my own person, so that if I conquered there would be none left, and, if I were defeated, I would be the one to suffer for it."
"That would be extremely presumptuous of you," said Merlyn, "and you would be conquered, and you would suffer for it."
"I shouldn't mind."
"Wouldn't you? Wait till it happens and see."
"Why do people not think, when they are grown up, as I do when I am young?"
"Oh dear," said Merlyn. '"You are making me feel confused. Suppose you wait till you are grown up and know the reason?"
"I don't think that is an answer at all," replied the Wart, justly.
Merlyn wrung his hands.
"Well, anyway," he said, "suppose they did not let you stand against all the evil in the world?"
"I could ask," said the Wart.
"You could ask," repeated Merlyn.
He thrust the end of his beard into his mouth, stared tragically into the fire, and began to munch it fiercely.”
