“If a million people believe a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing”
David Gemmell, The First Chronicles of Druss the Legend

David Gemmell
“What is the point, then, of dying when the cause is already lost?"
"What is the point of living without a cause worth dying for?”
David Gemmell, Winter Warriors

Robert E. Howard
“Poets always hate those in power. To them perfection is always just behind the last corner, or beyond the next. They escape the present in dreams of the past and future.”
Robert E. Howard, Conan: The Definitive Collection

David Gemmell
“Each of us here believes in the concept of honor: that it is man’s duty to do that which is right and just, that might alone is not enough.”
David Gemmell, Legend

David Gemmell
“A warrior has only one true friend. Only one man he can rely on. Himself. So he feeds his body well; he trains it; works on it. Where he lacks skill, he practises. Where he lacks knowledge, he studies. But above all he must believe. He must believe in his strength of will, of purpose, of heart and soul. Do not speak badly of yourself, for the warrior that is inside you hears your words and is lessened by them. You are strong and you are brave. There is a nobility of spirit within you. Let it grow — you will do well enough. Now where is that damned food?”
David Gemmell, Quest for Lost Heroes
