“Are you a storyteller, Thomas Covenant?"
Absently he replied, "I was, once."
"And you gave it up? Ah, that is as sad a tale in three words as any you might have told me. But a life without a tale is like a sea without salt. How do you live?"
... Unconsciously, he clenched his fist over his ring. "I live."
"Another?" Foamfollower returned. "In two words, a story sadder than the first. Say no more -- with one word you will make me weep.”
― Stephen R. Donaldson

“Joy is in the ears that hear.”
― Stephen R Donaldson

“Part of him wanted to weep... but his purpose was rigid within him. He felt he could not bend to gentleness without breaking.”
― Stephen R. Donaldson, The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, the Unbeliever

“I respect my limitations, but I don't use them as an excuse. ”
