“The best cure for racism is to have somebody shoot at you. Man, it does not matter then what color the arse is that comes to save yours-black or white, you're ready to give it a big fat kiss.”
Wilbur Smith, Golden Fox

“I used to know where I was going but as I get older I just seem to arrive there!”
David Hodges, Witch Fire on the Levels

Wilbur Smith
“It's a strange paradox that a man gifted with too many talents can fritter them all away without developing a single one to its full.”
Wilbur Smith, Rage

“Because people inhabit a physical world, they need to measure the height, width, length, volume or capacity, and worth of various items within that world. For example, one does not begin construction of a building without knowing its planned width, length, and height. Likewise, those who grow their own food need to know how much grain their family members require and how much seed is likely to produce that amount of food. This reality was just as true for the world of the Bible as it is today. Readers of the biblical text will encounter numerous references to measurements; some are fairly well understood, and some are obscure. Although we cannot be certain about modern equivalencies in every case, the following tables provide reasonably reliable approximations of the most common biblical measurements.”
Society of Biblical Literature, The SBL Study Bible

Wilbur Smith
“A man follows the path laid out for him. He does his duty to God and his King. He does what he must do, not what pleases him. God's truth, boy, what kind of world would this be if every man did what pleased him alone? Who would plough the fields and reap the harvest, if every man had the right to say, 'I don't want to do that.' In this world there is a place for every man, but every man must know his place.”
Wilbur Smith, Monsoon
