Nothing burns like the cold.
No man is free. Only children and fools think elsewise.
No fight is hopeless till it has been fought.
Never refuse a cup of wine or a horn of ale, it may be a year before you see another.
Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.
My mind is my weapon. My brother has his sword, King Robert has his warhammer, and I have my mind…and a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.
Most men would rather deny a hard truth than face it.
Minds are like swords, I do fear. The old ones go to rust.
Men’s lives have meaning, not their deaths.
Men of honor will do things for their children that they would never consider doing for themselves.
Men live their lives trapped in an eternal present, between the mists of memory and the sea of shadow that is all we know of the days to come.
Men have scars, women mysteries.
