In wars, boy, fools kill other fools for foolish causes.
You can never know everything, and part of what you know is always wrong. Perhaps even the most important part. A portion of wisdom lies in knowing that. A portion of courage lies in going on anyway.
Even fools say something worthwhile now and again. Even a blind pig finds an acorn sometimes.
What can’t be changed must be endured.
The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again.
The oak fought the wind and was broken, while the willow bent when it must and survived.
Respond to demands with silence, respond to challenges with questions.
No man can stand in the Shadow so long that he cannot find the Light again.
In war, you say a prayer for your dead and ride on, because there is always another fight over the next horizon.
If you plan for the worst, all surprises are pleasant.
If wishes were wings, sheep would fly.
Do not trouble trouble till trouble troubles you.
