Christopher Paolini cytaty

strona 3

„Strzeż się, kamień się zmienia.”

„Dobry kompromis złości wszystkich bez wyjątku.”

„Jedynym prawdziwym przewodnikiem jest serce.”

„Miłość, rodzina, niezwykłe czyny – wszystko znika, pozostawiając pustkę.”

„Czasami słuchać jest trudniej niż przewodzić.”

„Nie miej wyrzutów sumienia. Nie można nietkniętym przejść przez życie. I nikt nie powinien tego pragnąć. Zebrane obrażenia stanowią miarę zarówno naszych szaleństw, jak i osiągnięć.”

„Fałszywa skromność rzadko bywa zaletą, zwłaszcza wśród tych, którzy kierują innymi.”

„(…) jedyna nieśmiertelność, na jaką możemy liczyć, to ta zdobyta poprzez nasze czyny. Sława czy niesława, jedna i druga jest lepsza niż zapomnienie, gdy odejdziemy z tego świata.”

„Duma kobiety to oznaka głupoty.”

„Jedno tylko jest pewne: wszytko przemija.”

“It never struck me as interesting that I didn't go to school — we had our own little world.”

“Those whom we love are often the most alien to us.”

“Life is both pain and pleasure. If this is the price you must pay for the hours you enjoy, is it too much?”

“The purpose of life is not to do what we want but what needs to be done.”

“Find peace in where and what you are.”

“Let no man, in whatever rank or superiority, control your mind and tell you what to do”

“Avoid roasted cabbage, do not eat earwax, and look on the bright side of life!”

“The monsters of the mind are far worse than those that actually exist.”

“If you wish to be happy, Eragon, Think not of what is to come nor of that which you have no control over but rather of the now and that which you are able to change”

“Death is part of who we are. It guides
us. It shapes us. It drives us to madness. Can you still be human if you have no mortal end”

“If he fancied her anymore,' Saphira said to both Eragon and Roran, 'I'd be trying to kiss Arya myself.'

'Saphira!' Mortified, Eragon swatted her on the leg.”

“You would be amazed how many magicians have died after being bitten by mad rabbits. It's far more common than you might think.
-Angela the Herbalist”

“I've never been helpless, I just have powerful enemies”

“I think it would dismay them to know what it takes to feed you. Not to mention that you could empty their cellars of beer and wine in a single night.' Eragon said. Saphira sniffed.”

“You cannot miss what you have never had.”

“The songs of the dead are the lamentations of the living.”

“They may fight with us, but they don't fight for us.”

“Fear is good in small amounts, but when it is a constant, pounding companion, it cuts away at who you are”

“Only if you are afraid of looking foolish, and I would have looked far more foolish if I persisted with an erroneous belief.' Eragon said.
Why, little one, you just said something wise!'Saphira teased.”

“Only men would think of cutting themselves to determine who the packleader is. Idiots.”

“Of course you like him; everyone enjoys flattery.”

“It is foolish to conjure up woe where none exists.”

“How terrible," said Eragon, "to die alone, separate even from the one who is closest to you."”

“When someone refuses to tell me a certain piece of information, it only makes me that much more determined to find out the truth. I hate being ignorant. For me, a question unanswered is like a thorn in my side”

“He closed his eyes and sank into the warm dusk that separates consciosness and sleep, where reality bends and sways to the wind of thought, and where creativity blossoms in its freedom from boundaries and all things are possible.”

“Whatever you do, protect those you care for. Without them, life is more miserable than you can imagine.”

“I am not who I was,' he whispered, gripping the edges of the column, 'but I know who I am.'…
'And I won't give up.”

“If you don't make a few ememies now and then, you're a coward-or worse. Besides, it as worth it to see his reaction. Oh, he was angry!
- Angela to Eragon”

“I'm healthy as an ox. And you?" "To compare myself with a bovine would be both ridiculous and insulting, but I'm fit as ever, if that is what you are asking.”
