“A great man once told me there can be no courage without fear”
― David Gemmell, Lord of the Silver Bow

“There's no shame in fear. But understand this - the coward is ruled by fear, while the hero rides it like a wild stallion.”
― David Gemmell, Dark Moon

“If dreams of flying are the last hope of freedom
I will pray for wings with my last breath.”
― Steven Erikson, The Crippled God

“When a fool sees himself as he is, then he is a fool no longer; and when a wise man learns of his own wisdom, then he becomes a fool.” This caused me great trouble, for it seemed mere word play. But after many years I have come to this conclusion: that only in certainty is there moral danger. Doubt is the gift we must cherish, for it forces us to question our motives constantly. It guides us to truth.”
