Robert Jordan: Making

“You have made flowers grow where I cultivated dust and stones. Remember this, on this journey you insist on making. If you die, I will not survive you long.”

“I don't know. They could put up a warning sign or something. Hello. Welcome to Hindstrap. We will murder you in the night and eat your bloody face if you stay past sunset. Try the pies. Martna Maily makes them fresh daily.”

“I will hate the man you choose because he isn't me, and love him if he makes you smile.”

“Advice! Nobody tells us how to be men. We just are." "That is probably why you make such a bad job of it.- Perrin and Egwene”

“How do you fight someone smarter than yourself?" Rand whispered. "The anser is simple. You make her think that you are sitting down across the table from her, ready to play her game. Then you punch her in the face as hard as you can.”

“If you must mount the gallows, give a jest to the crowd, a coin to the hangman, and make the drop with a smile on your lips.”

“I will never shame you. I will hate the man you choose because he is not me, and love him if he makes you smile. No woman deserves the sure knowledge of widow's black as her brideprice, you least of all.”

“At my age, if I make it up, it’s still an old saying.”

“Does it make you brave to stick your hand in a bear's mouth? Would you do it again just because you didn't die?”

“She understood his eyes, colder than winter's heart. A man who knew he was dead and couldn't make himself care; you are spared that. Mashiara. His lost love.”

“He doesn't know what to make of me," Mat said softly.
"How very uncommon. I can't think of anyone else who has reacted that way to you, Mat.”

“You could weave silk from pig bristles before you could make a man anything but a man.”

“The best way to avoid trouble is to make sure no one wants to trouble you.”

“To fight the raven you may make alliance with the serpent until the battle is done.”

“Prophecy is most dangerous when you try to make it happen… The Pattern weaves itself around you, but when you try to weave it, even you cannot hold it.”

“You cannot tell a man he has the power to make the earth shake, then expect him to walk small.”

“I always thought the stole weighed about as much as three good men. The Amyrlin has few easy decisions to make, and fewer where she can be sure. Do what you must, and pay the price if you’re wrong. Sometimes if you are right, too.”

“Men always seem to refuse to admit they are sick until they’re sick enough to make twice as much work for women. Then they claim they’re well too soon, with the same result.”

“"Wish" and "want" trip the feet, but "is" makes the path smoother.”
