Steven Erikson
“Death cannot be struggled against, brother. It ever arrives, defiant of every hiding place, of every frantic attempt to escape. Death is every mortal's shadow, his true shadow, and time is its servant, spinning that shadow slowly round, until what stretched before one now stretched before him.”
Steven Erikson

R. Scott Bakker
“This is the problem of all great revelations: their significance so often exceeds the frame of our comprehension. We understand only after, always after. Not simply when it is too late, but precisely because it is too late.”
R. Scott Bakker, The Darkness That Comes Before

David Gemmell
“We are tiny flames, Helikaon, and we flicker alone in the great dark for no more than a heartbeat. When we strive for wealth, glory and fame, it is meaningless. The nations we fight for will one day cease to be. Even the mountains we gaze upon will crumble to dust. To truly live we must yearn for that which does not die.”
David Gemmell, Shield of Thunder

Steven Erikson
“There is no struggle too vast, no odds too overwhelming, for even should we fail - should we fall - we will know that we have lived.”
Steven Erikson, Toll the Hounds

Isaac Asimov
“In life, unlike chess, the game continues after checkmate.”
Isaac Asimov
