Text Quotes
With ever greater frequency they annihilate themselves, for success breeds contempt for those very qualities that purchased it (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Name none of the fallen, for they stand in our place, and stand there still in each moment of our lives. Let my death hold no glory, and let me die forgotten and unknown. Let it not be said that I was one among the dead to accuse the living (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Should you ever outrun the guilt within your past, sorceress, you will have outrun your soul. When it finds you again it will kill you (Steven Erikson Quotes)
The righteous will claim sole domain on judgment. The righteous are the first t make hands into fists, the first to shout down dissenters, the first to bully others into compliance (Steven Erikson Quotes)
He was a man who would never ask for sympathy. He was a man who sought only to do what was right. Such people appear in the world, every world, now and then, like a single refrain of some blessed song, a fragment caught on the spur of an otherwise raging cacophony. Imagine a world without such souls. Yes, it should have been harder to do (Steven Erikson Quotes)
If dreams of flying are the last hope of freedom, I will pray for wings with my last breath (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Survivors do not mourn together. They each mourn alone, even when in the same place. Grief is the most solitary of all feelings. Grief isolates, and every ritual, every gesture, every embrace, is a hopeless effort to break through that isolation. None of it works. The forms crumble and dissolve. To face death is to stand alone (Steven Erikson Quotes)
War has its necessities... and I have always understood that. Always known the cost. But, this day, by my own hand, I have realized something else. War is not a natural state. It is an imposition, and a damned unhealthy one. With its rules, we willingly yield our humanity. Speak not of just causes, worthy goals. We are takers of life (Steven Erikson Quotes)
It is one thing to lead by example with half a dozen soldiers at your back. It is wholly another with ten thousand (Steven Erikson Quotes)
A story invites both writer and reader into a kind of superficial ease: we want to slide along, pleasingly entertained, lost in the fictional dream (Steven Erikson Quotes)
For we are all bound in stories, and as the years pile up they turn to stone, layer upon layer, building our lives (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Believe it or not, friendships are difficult to write in fiction. They can easily come across as forced, particularly if they involve too much explication and too many overt gestures of affection (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Children were meant to be gifts. The physical manifestation of love between a man and a woman. And for that love all manner of sacrifice could be borne (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Wise words are like arrows flung at your forehead. What do you do? Why, you duck of course (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Destiny is a lie. Destiny is justification for atrocity. It is the means by which murderers armour themselves against reprimand. It is a word intended to stand in place of ethics, denying all moral context (Steven Erikson Quotes)
I mean the only thing us dead soldiers got in common is that none of us was good enough or lucky enough to survive the fight. We’re a host of failures (Steven Erikson Quotes)
One day, perhaps, you will see for yourself that regrets are as nothing. The value lies in how they are answered (Steven Erikson Quotes)
I warn you all, hatred is finding fertile soil within me. And in your compassion, in your every good intention, you nurture it (Steven Erikson Quotes)
What matter the colour of the collar around a man’s neck, if the chains linked to them were identical? (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Death cannot be struggled against, brother. It ever arrives, defiant of every hiding place, of every frantic attempt to escape. Death is every mortal’s shadow, his true shadow, and time is its servant, spinning that shadow slowly round, until what stretched before one now stretched before him (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Shadow is ever besieged, for that is its nature. Whilst darkness devours, and light steals. And so one sees shadow ever retreat to hidden places, only to return in the wake of the war between dark and light (Steven Erikson Quotes)
You are very easily exasperated, my dear. If you’re a leaf trembling on a wide, deep river, relax and ride the current. It’s always worked for me, I assure you (Steven Erikson Quotes)
When you’ve burned the bridges behind you, don’t go starting a fire on the one in front of you (Steven Erikson Quotes)
I was needed, but I myself did not need. I had followers, but not allies, and only now do I understand the difference. And it is vast (Steven Erikson Quotes)
The soul knows no greater anguish than to take a breath that begins with love and ends with grief (Steven Erikson Quotes)
The idea that an author can extricate her or his own ongoing life experience from the tale being written is a conceit of very little worth (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Paradise belonged to the innocent. Which was why it was and would ever remain empty. And that is what makes it a paradise (Steven Erikson Quotes)
Betrayal was the greatest of all crimes, for it took all that was human within a person and made it a thing of pain. In the face of that, murder itself was surcease: it was quick, and it ended the anguish and despair of a life without hope (Steven Erikson Quotes)
All that we were has led us to where we are, but tells us little of where we’re going. Memories are a weight you can never shrug off (Steven Erikson Quotes)
