Life Quotes Quote by R.A. Salvatore — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“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.”

“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.”

“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?”

“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.”

“...a third [of three] had died in his bunk of natural causes--for a dagger in the heart quite naturally ends one's life.”

“Those who have failed to work toward the truth have missed the purpose of living.”

““My expectations were reduced to zero when I was 21. Everything since then has been a bonus."”

“Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue. Realize the strength, move on.”

“Our lives are not as limited as we think they are; the world is a wonderfully weird place; consensual reality is significantly flawed; no institution can be trusted, but love does work; all things are possible; and we all could be happy and fulfilled if we only had the guts to be truly free and the wisdom to shrink our egos and quit taking ourselves so damn seriously.”

““We only need to be one person.”

“You don't have to disrespect and insult others simply to hold your own ground. If you do, that shows how shaky your own position is.”
