The future is fate, it won’t change.
One path looks like another.
Nothing finishes an evening in an alehouse so well as a fight.
Not every sword stroke is a kill! A kill is something you must fashion.
If your God’s with you, you’re a lucky man.
I want them to know that I am alive. I need them to know that I’m alive because they hold what’s mine.
I have no place. I’m not a husband. I am not Uhtred of Coccham, not Uhtred of Bebbanburg. I’m not Uhtred Ragnarson. I am not even an outlaw anymore.[to Hild]
I have given half my life to Wessex. I will give no more.[to Beocca]
I am Uhtred of Bebbanburg, and I shall take what is mine.
How can I make a promise that I cannot keep? Stupid, it’s in my nature.[to Beocca]
God works in the strangest of ways, known only to himself.
Courage is finding the will to overcome your fear, nothing more.[to Osferth]
