Once you place that crown of liar on your head, you can take it off again, but it leaves a stain for all time (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Perception was easily accomplished, required little effort, and it never had to stand the test of reality (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Everything is valuable under the right conditions. To a man dying of thirst, water be more precious than gold. To a drowning man, water be of little worth and great trouble (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
If something is wrong, it matters not if a thousand men are for it; you must still oppose it. If something is just, no amount of popular outcry should stay you from your course (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
To love someone means that you sometimes are fulfilled the most by putting thier deepest desires above your own (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
... think of the solution, not the problem. If your mind was filled only with thoughts of why you were going to lose, then you couldn’t think of how to win (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Her green eyes came unafraid to his. The connection was so intense that it threatened to drain his sense of self. He felt that he had always known her, that she had always been a part of him, that her needs were his needs (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
To the right person, the person who is truly born to it, duty is a form of love, through which all is possible. Duty is not always a denial of things, but an expansion of them to others. Duty is not always a chore, but is best carried out with love (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
I never could understand why some writers treat women as helpless. Every woman I know is strong in her own unique way (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Never let a beautiful woman pick your path for you when there is a man in her line of sight (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Sometimes, it is necessary to step beyond what you have known and to reach for something more (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
There is nothing that exists that has only one side. Even a piece of paper, thin as it is, has two sides (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Everyone has an effect on others. Some people inspire others to do great things. Some take people into crime with them. Those with the gift affect those around them even more (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
You can’t love anyone or anything until you love your own existence first. Love can only grow out of a respect for your own life (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
We can’t live our lives according to what might have been. We have to live by what is (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Laugh all you want. I know my own worth and don’t need to prove it to someone who doesn’t know theirs (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
The mice think they are right, but my cat eats them anyways. This is the point, reality is nothing, perception is everything (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Those who have come here to hate should leave now; for in their hate, they only betray themselves (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
It does the sheep no good to preach the goodness of a diet of grass, if the wolves are of a different mind (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Life for the strongest. There is no sympathy for the slain, only admiration for the winner’s strength (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Reason and reality are the only means to just laws; mindless wishes, if given sovereignty, become deadly masters (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
I often hear people say that they read to escape reality, but I believe that what they’re really doing is reading to find reason for hope, to find strength. While a bad book leaves readers with a sense of hopelessness and despair, a good novel, through stories of values realized, of wrongs righted, can bring to readers a connection to the wonder of life. A good novel shows how life can and ought to be lived. It not only entertains but energizes and uplifts readers (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
I’m afraid that we all make mistakes. One of the things that defines our character is how we handle mistakes. If we lie about having made a mistake, then it can’t be corrected and it festers. On the other hand, if we give up just because we made a mistake, even a big mistake, none of us would get far in life (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Over the millennia the seed of stories planted in the fertile soil of bits and scraps of facts was watered by wishes and began to take root and grow. Eventually, a bountiful fruit of rumors burst forth, to be spread on the wind of whispers that said we hid a fabled hoard of gold. Nothing could convince the believers that it was not true. The truth does not glitter for these people like gold does (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Love is a passion for life shared with another person. You fall in love with a person who you think is wonderful. It’s your deepest appreciation of the value of that individual, and that individual is a reflection of what you value most in life. Love, for sound reasons, can be one of life’s greatest rewards (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Faith and feelings are the warm marrow of evil. Unlike reason, faith and feelings provide no boundary to limit any delusion, any whim. They are virulent poison, giving the numbing illusion of moral sanction to every depravity ever hatched. Faith and feelings are the darkness to reason’s light. Reason is the very substance of truth itself. The glory that is life is wholly embraced through reason. In rejecting it, in rejecting reason, one embraces death (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it’s true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
Many people must be ruled to thrive. In their selfishness and greed, they see free people as their oppressors. They wish to have a leader who will cut the taller plants so the sun will reach them. They think no plant should be allowed to grow taller than the shortest, and in that way give light to all. They would rather be provided a guiding light, regardless of the fuel, than light a candle themselves (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
She looked so beautiful in the moonlight, but it wasn’t only the way she looked, it was what was inside her, everything from her intelligence and courage to her wit, and the special smile she gave only to him. He would slay a dragon, if there were such a thing, just to see that smile. He knew he would never want anyone else for as long as he lived. He would rather spend the rest of his life alone than with someone else. There could be no one else (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
There is no such thing as pure good or pure evil, least of all in people. In the best of us there are thoughts or deeds that are wicked, and in the worst of us, at least some virtue. An adversary is not one who does loathsome acts for their own sake. He always has a reason that to him is justification. My cat eats mice. Does that make him bad? I don’t think so, and the cat doesn’t think so, but I would bet the mice have a different opinion (Terry Goodkind Quotes)
