You have to learn to love the small things in life, like a hot bath. You have to love the small things, when you have nothing else Picture Quote #1

Fearlessness is a fool’s boast, to my mind. The only men with no fear in them are dead, or the soon to be dead, maybe. Fear teaches you caution, and respect for your enemy, and to avoid sharp edges used in anger. All good things in their place, believe me. Fear can bring you out alive, and that’s the very best anyone can hope for from any fight. Every man who’s worth a damn feels fear. It’s the use you make of it that counts Picture Quote #1

A friendship between a man and a woman was what you called it when one had been pursuing the other for a long time and never gotten anywhere Picture Quote #1

You were a hero round these parts. That's what they call you when you kill so many people the word murderer falls short Picture Quote #1

Everything frightens me, and it's well that it does. Fear is a good friend to the hunted, it's kept me alive this long. The dead are fearless, and I don't care to join them Picture Quote #1

First it is done to us, then we do it to others, then we order it done. Such is the way of things Picture Quote #1

There can be a greater power in words than in all the steel within the Circle of the World Picture Quote #1

Glorious victories make fine songs, Yarvi, but inglorious ones are no worse once the bards are done with them. Glorious defeats, meanwhile, are just defeats Picture Quote #1

Suffering is what gives a man strength, my boy, just as the steel most hammered turns out the hardest Picture Quote #1

But you can't truly hate a man without loving him first, and there's always a trace of that love left over Picture Quote #1

A whole new thing. A forging of the humble parts of bread and cheese into a greater whole. I call it... a cheese trap Picture Quote #1
