Quote by Raymond E. Feist

“All his life he has been in the shadow of Grandfather, and of the man for whom he was named." ... "Then, Grandfather would tell us it has nothing to do with fame.” “He enjoyed the notoriety, though,” said Dash. “Agreed,” said Jimmy. “But he gained it from being so bloody brilliant at what he did. He didn’t set out to be the most fiendishly clever noble in history.” “Maybe that’s what Father knew from the start; it’s just getting the job done and let history decide what history will decide,” observed Dash.”

“What is infinity? I haven’t a clue. But maybe that’s the whole point I’ve been attempting to explain to you. The fact that it’s not known Or seen Or heard. Infinity is every person, every being, every bird. Infinity is a simple mystery. It looks like a mystery. Tastes mysterious. Feels like something completely delirious. We cannot imagine what this sound could be. All we can imagine is infinity.”

“It is not your fate that is your verdict, but how you deal with your fate. If you find yourself in a story contrary to every vow you have made or wish to make, then you must silence your mind and observe everything closely. You must see the patterns of possible fates in the world around you and choose that which your holy soul tells you to choose." - Thordis, Thunder priestess”
