Favorite RA Salvatore Quotes

1. "A man inferior with the blade or with his thoughts can still so elevate himself," Entreri explained curtly, "if he can impart the belief that some god or other speaks through him. It is the greatest deception in all the world and one embraced by kings and lords, while the minor lying thieves on the streets or Calimport and other cities lose their tongues for so attempting to coax the purses of others." ~ R.A. Salvatore

2. "Change is not always growth, but growth is often rooted in change.Drizzt Do'Urden" ~ R.A. Salvatore

3. "Are we then creatures of action? Do we say that we desire those accepted cliches of comfort when, in fact, it is the challenge and the adventure that truly give us life?" ~ R.A. Salvatore

4. "Is that not the whole point of gaining experience, to use it to make wiser choices, to temper destructive instincts, to find better resolutions?" ~ R.A. Salvatore

5. "But in his years among the drow, Drizzt Do'Urden had learned to look beyond physical beauty and physical attraction. Drizzt did not separate the physical from the emotional. He was a superb fighter because he fought with his heart and would no sooner battle merely for the sake of battle than he would mate for the sake of the physical act." ~ R.A. Salvatore

6. "Outlive your superiors and the world is yours.~ Beniago" ~ R.A. Salvatore

7. "the true warrior understands that while one is learning how to use a sword," ~ R.A. Salvatore

8. "one should also be learning why and when to use a sword. To grant the power of a weapon master to anyone at all," ~ R.A. Salvatore

10. "comes with such power." ~ R.A. Salvatore

11. "Are you surprised by anything anymore?~ Artemis Entreri" ~ R.A. Salvatore

12. "Time to hunt?" Cattie-brie cried, satisfied that she had gotten her point across. She rose beside Wulfgar and headed for the door, but she turned her head over her shoulder to face Drizzt one final time, giving him a look that told him that perhaps he should have asked for more from Cattie-brie back in Icewind Dale, before Wulfgar had entered her life." ~ R.A. Salvatore

13. "No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith." ~ R.A. Salvatore

14. "Farewell is said by the living, in life, every day. It is said with love and friendship, with the affirmation that the memories are lasting if the flesh is not." ~ R.A. Salvatore

15. "Never confuse honor with stupidity!" ~ R.A. Salvatore

16. "Cook another feast,' Bruenor grumbled. 'Suren the elf has his eye fixed on another wedding."Drizzt let it go at that. Maybe there was a ring of truth in Bruenor's words for some distant date. No longer did Drizzt limit his hopes and desires. He would see the world as he could and draw his choices from his wishes, not from limitations he might impose upon himself. For now, though, Drizzt had found something too personal to be shared.For the first time in his life, the drow had found peace." ~ R.A. Salvatore

17. "Everyone dies. It is how one lives that matters." ~ R.A. Salvatore

18. "How many people long for that "past, simpler, and better world," I wonder, without ever recognizing the truth that perhaps it was they who were simpler and better, and not the world about them?" ~ R.A. Salvatore

19. "Nostalgia is a necessary thing, I believe, and a way for all of us to find peace in that which we have accomplished, or even failed to accomplish. At the same time, if nostalgia precipitates actions to return to that fabled, rosy-painted time, particularly in one who believes his life to be a failure, then it is an empty thing, doomed to produce nothing but frustration and an even greater sense of failure." ~ R.A. Salvatore

20. "He looked down at the mask hanging around his neck. So simple a lie, and he could walk freely throughout the world.But would he then be trapped within the web of his own deception? What freedom could he find in denying the truth about himself?" ~ R.A. Salvatore

21. "Drizzt felt the despair most keenly. For all the trials of his hard life, the drow had held faith for ultimate justice. He had believed, though he never dared to admit it, that his unyielding faith in his precious principles would bring him the reward her deserved. Now, there was this, a struggle that could only end in death, where one victory brought only more conflict." ~ R.A. Salvatore

22. "If you can quit, then quit. If you can't quit, you're a writer." ~ R.A. Salvatore

23. "Loss of empathy might well be the most enduring and deep-cutting scar of all, the silent blade of an unseen emey, tearing at our hearts and stealing more than our strength- Drizzt Do'Urden" ~ R.A. Salvatore

24. "Drizzt Do'Urden had followed a line of precepts based upon discipline and ultimate optimism. He fought for a better world because he believed that a better world could and would be made. He had never held any illusions that he would change the world, of course, or even a substantial portion of it, but he always held strongly that fighting to better just his own little pocket of the world was a worthwhile cause." ~ R.A. Salvatore

25. "Joy multiplies when it is shared among friends, but grief diminishes with every division. That is life." ~ R.A. Salvatore

26. "There is a place within each of us where we cannot hide from the truth, where virtue sits as judge. To admit the truth of our actions is to go before that court, where process is irrelevant. Good and evil are intents, and intent is without excuse." ~ R.A. Salvatore

27. "We need to be reminded sometimes that a sunrise last but a few minutes. But its beauty can burn in our hearts eternally." ~ R.A. Salvatore

28. "First blood is mine.Last blood counts for more.--Artemis Entreri and Drizzt Do'Urden" ~ R.A. Salvatore

29. "A king is a man strong of character and conviction who leads by example and truly cares for the suffering of his people,not a brute who rules simply because he is the strongest." ~ R.A. Salvatore

30. "You view the gods as entities without," Montolio tried to explain. "You see them as physical beings trying to control our actions for their own ends, and thus you, in your stubborn independance, reject them. The gods are within, I say, whether one has named his own or not. You have followed Mielikki all your life, Drizzt. You merely never had a name to put on your heart." ~ R.A. Salvatore

31. "Selfishly, perhaps, Catti-brie had determined that the assassin was her own business. He had unnerved her, had stripped away years of training and discipline and reduced her to the quivering semblance of a frightened child. But she was a young woman now, no more a girl. She had to personally respond to that emotional humiliation, or the scars from it would haunt her to her grave, forever paralyzing her along her path to discover her true potential in life." ~ R.A. Salvatore

32. "But what of faith? What of fidelity and loyalty? Complete trust? Faith is not granted by tangible proof. It comes from the heart and the soul. If a person needs proof of god's existence, then the very notion of spirituality is diminished into sensuality and we have reduced what is holy into what is logical.-Drizzt Do'urden" ~ R.A. Salvatore

33. "These were the companions who justified my principles, who gave me the strength to continue against any foe, real or imagined. These were the companions who fought the helplessness, the rage, and frustration.These were the friends who gave me my life." ~ R.A. Salvatore

34. "Station is the paradox of the world of my people, the limitation of our power within the hunger for power. It is gained through treachery and invites treachery against those who gain it. Those most powerful in Menzoberranzan spend their days watching over their shoulders, defending against the daggers that would find their backs. Their deaths usually come from the front." -Drizzt Do'Urden" ~ R.A. Salvatore

35. "There is a wide world out there, full of pain, but filled with joy as well. The former keeps you on the path of growth and the latter makes the journey tolerable." ~ R.A. Salvatore

36. "Hindsight, I think, is a useless tool. We, each of us, are at a place in our lives because of innumerable circumstances, and we, each of us, have a responsibility (if we do not like where we are) to move along life's road, to find a better path if this one does not suit, or to walk happily along this one if it is indeed our life's way. Changing even the bad things that have gone before would fundamentally change who we are, and whether or not that would be a good thing, I believe, it is impossible to predict. So I take my past experiences... and try to regret nothing. -Drizzt Do'urden" ~ R.A. Salvatore

37. "Nothin's what it seems, drow!" Bruenor declared. "Nothin'! Ye try to follow what ye know, ye know? But then ye find that ye know not what ye thought ye knowed! Thought a dog'd be tastin' good - looked good enough - but now me belly's cursing me every move!" ~ R.A. Salvatore

38. "Artemis Entreri: Do not underestimate Jarlaxle. Many have; they all are dead." ~ R.A. Salvatore

39. "Because of the friends I have known, the honorable people I have met, I know I am no solitary hero of unique causes. I know now that when I die, I will live on. That which is important will live on. This is my Legacy; and by the grace of the gods, I am not alone." ~ R.A. Salvatore

40. "There is no pain greater than this; not the cut of a jagged-edged dagger nor the fire of a dragon's breath. Nothing burns in your heart like the emptiness of losing something, someone, before you truly have learned of its value." ~ R.A. Salvatore

41. "Never seem to have a Death Star lying around when you need one." -Han Solo" ~ R.A. Salvatore

42. "As I became a creature of the empty tunnels, survival became easier and more difficult all at once. I gained in the physical skills and experience necessary to live on. I could defeat almost anything that wandered into my chosen domain. It did not take me long, however, to discover one nemesis that I could neither defeat nor flee. It followed me wherever I went - indeed, the farther I ran, the more it closed in around me. My enemy was solitude, the interminable, incessant silence of hushed corridors." ~ R.A. Salvatore

43. "Take your love and your pleasure as you find it. Do not worry so much of the future that you let today pass you by. you are happy. need you know more than that?" ~ R.A. Salvatore

44. "Is yours an honest lament? ... Most are not, you know. Most self-imposed burdens are founded on misperceptions. We - at least we of sincere character - always judge ourselves by stricter standards than we expect others to abide by. It is a curse, I suppose, or a blessing, depending on how one views it... Take it as a blessing, my friend, an inner calling that forces you to strive to unattainable heights." ~ R.A. Salvatore

45. "I am no longer amazed by how quickly a man will justify his change of heart when a spear is leveled his way." ~ R.A. Salvatore

46. "Drizzt had always suspected it, but now it was confirmed, that "welcome" was his favortie word in the Common Tongue, and a word, he understood with no equivalent in the language of the drow." ~ R.A. Salvatore

47. "Farewell, my friend," Drizzt whispered, trying futilely to keep his voice from breaking. :This journey you make alone." ~ R.A. Salvatore

48. "I've spared with demons from the Nine Hells themselves, I shall barely break a sweat here today." ~ R.A. Salvatore

49. "...a third [of three] had died in his bunk of natural causes--for a dagger in the heart quite naturally ends one's life." ~ R.A. Salvatore

50. "The gods of the realms are many and varied -- or they are the many and varied names and identities tagged onto the same being. I know not -- and care not -- which." ~ R.A. Salvatore
