When a woman says she will obey you, of her own will, it is time to sleep lightly and watch your back. We rode on the winds of the rising storm Death comes for us all. We can only chose how to face it when it comes. Yes, Rand al'Thor. I hate you with all of my heart. I do. And I always will. Men always believe they are in control of everything around them. When they find out they are not, they think they have failed, instead of learning a simple truth women already know.

For the windows of my bedchamber. I will see Mayene and all its ships burn before one Tairen lord sets foot in my city. Mat won't corrupt Beslan. I doubt nine feather dancers with a shipload of brandy could corrupt him. They wouldn't know where to begin.

I don’t know about you two, but I intend to get drunk enough to…well…to take off my clothes and dance on the table. And not a hair drunker. You always choose women who cause you trouble, Lews Therin.

The Children have authority wherever the Light is, witch, and where the Light is not, we bring it. Only a fool thinks his enemies stand still when he isn't looking, my Lord Dragon Do you have any idea how long it takes to dig graves for twenty-three oak trees? I guess being ta'veren isn't all cheese and ale. I returned from my ride to find two strange men ransacking our tent. They drew daggers, so naturally, I hit one of them with a chair and stabbed the other. Any day you wake up, maybe you die. Quit submitting "Blood and bloody ashes!" You are no longer beautiful, I fear, sweetling...I think you may even be ugly when you are older. But I always enjoyed your eyes more than your face. And your hands. My mother always told me the best way to learn to deal with a man was to learn to ride a mule. She said they have about equal brains most of the time.Sometimes the mule is smarter.

Sometimes you have to do it, but sometimes it just isn't worth the trouble. You put your cat in your hat and stuff it down your breeches, Rand al'Thor. If you fell head first into a pigsty, you'd try to convince everybody you did it on purpose. Nynaeve, admitting she had been a fool? She almost looked to see whether the sun has turned green!

I had to kill a couple of Warders. Bad business, that, killing Warders. Don't like it. Sooner or later there's always trouble when there's two humans together. I hope you're not Darkfriends.

It simply is, and it is not to be understood. You cannot live without it, but it exacts a price. So with women. We all must wake from the dream one day, Perrin Aybara.

Let us see what is required to earn the heron on this side of the ocean. Thus is our treaty written; thus is agreement made. Thought is the arrow of time; memory never fades. What was asked is given; the price is paid. The grave is no bar to my call. La Rueda del Tiempo gira, y las eras llegan y pasan y dejan tras de si recuerdos que se convierten en leyenda. La leyenda se difumina, deviene mito, e incluso el mito se ha olvidado mucho antes de que la era que lo vio nacer retorne de nuevo... Ajan Pyörä pyörii, ja aikakaudet tulevat ja menevät jättäen jälkeensä muistoja, joista legendat syntyvät. Legenda haalistuu myytiksi, ja myyttikin vaipuu unohduksiin, kunnes jälleen koittaa aikakausi, joka sen loi. I en ålder, av somliga kallad Tredje Åldern, en ålder som ännu skulle komma och som länge var förbi, uppstod en vind i Dimbergen. Vinden var inte början. Det finns varken början eller slut när Tidens Hjul vrider sig. Men det var en början. Tidens hjul vrider sig. Åldrar kommer och åldrar går, och de efterlämnar minnen, som blir legender. Legenderna bleknar till myter, och till och med myten är sedan länge glömd när den ålder som var dess upphov återkommer. La Ruota del Tempo gira e le Epoche si susseguono, lasciando ricordi che diventano leggenda; la leggenda sbiadisce nel mito, ma anche il mito é ormai dimenticato, quando ritorna l'Epoca che lo vide nascere. You cannot escape so easily, Dragon. It is not done between us. It will not be done until the end of time. The dead belong to me! You can have her back, Kinslayer.

It was a good day to die He had to get that odd little woman out of his head, although she seemed to have lodged herself inside his skull, somehow. The fact that the price must be paid is proof that it is worth paying. The rose petal floats on water, My humility is honed to razor sharpness. You never let it grow too dull. Death comes sooner or later to everyone unless they serve the Dark One, and only fools are willing to pay that price. He was better. But he thought I was finished, with only one arm. He never understood. You surrender after you’re dead. All men dream. But I know dreams for dreams. This is reality. Never watch a death you don't have to. You can never know everything, and part of what you know is always wrong. Perhaps even the most important part. A portion of wisdom lies in knowing that. A portion of courage lies in going on anyways. An Aes Sedai, if she really was one, and a Cairhienin? There could be no worse combination. We are alike in many ways, you and I. There is a darkness in us. Darkness, pain, death. They radiate from us. If ever you love a woman, Rand, leave her and let her find another. It will be the best gift you can give her. I will make you a gift and you will take it if I have to chain it around your neck. You have made a place in my heart where I thought there was no room for anything else. 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 will hate the man you choose because he is not me, and love him if he makes you smile. A wolfhound must be a wolfhound in the wolf's eyes even more than in his own, if he is to survive. Whatever you can do, Lews Therin, I can do. And better. I can show a tender, woman's heart when I choose. If you are not mine, then you are dead. You are sealed to us now. Do you have the Horn of Valere hidden in your pocket this time? Are you real? Am I? We all make our limits, and we set them further out than we have any right. A woman who knows the danger and isn’t afraid is a treasure only a madman would spurn. The dead watch. The dead never close their eyes. Watching. Watching. I see you. Who sees me? Most women will shrug off what a man would kill you for, and kill you for what a man would shrug off. What you have is not what you want; what you want is what you cannot have I am not dead! I deserve death, but I am alive! Alive! Alive! To destroy, or be destroyed. When that's your choice, is there a difference? The only way to live is to die. What I love, I destroy. What I destroy, I love. I killed the whole world, and you can too, if you try hard. Dead men should be quiet in their graves, but they never are. How many have died for my pride? How many have died for my mistakes? Death rides on my shoulder, death walks in my footsteps; I am death... You never escape the traps you spin yourself. Only a greater power can break a power, and then you're trapped again. Trapped forever so you cannot die. Madness waits for some. It creeps up on others. A man who trusts everyone is a fool, and a man who trusts no one is a fool. We are all fools if we live long enough. Only a fool thinks a lion or a woman can truly be tamed. They will pay. I am Lord of the Morning. Trust is death! Eagles and women can only be kept safe in cages. Nothing ever goes as you expect. Expect nothing, and you will not be surprised. Expect nothing. Hope for nothing. Nothing. Take what you have. Rejoice in what you can save, and do not mourn your losses too long. Oh, Light, why do I have a madman in my head? Why? Why? Where are all the dead? Why will they not be silent? The Wheel of Time and the wheel of a man's life turn alike without pity or mercy. I would not mind you in my head, if you were not so clearly mad. If it hurts too much, make it hurt someone else instead. Tears are for after; they just waste time before. At my age, if I make it up, it is still an old saying. It is one of the things men are for, taking the blame. They usually deserve it even if you don't know how. You can sooner weave pig bristles into silk than make a man anything but a man. Kittens tangle your yarn, men tangle your wits, and it's as easy as breathing for both. A secret spoken finds wings. An open chest hides nothing, and an open door hides little. But an open man is surely hiding something. It isn't the stone you see that trips you on your nose. Now I'm a flaming fly-whisk? Never anger an Aes Sedai. Better to embrace the sun than to anger an Aes Sedai. Stay and get married or travel the Ways. Life is very unsettling with ta'veren for friends. None will pass while I live, Perrin. Not Myrddraal or the Dark One himself He's human, so it could mean anything. I have not had anyone to talk to in days, except good Master Gill, and he is busy most of the time. The cook seems to run him unmercifully. Perhaps she really owns the inn? One man holding fifty at a narrow passage. Not a bad way to die. Songs have been made about less. It is every man's right, Rand, to choose when to Sheathe the Sword. Even one like me. There's work waiting for me. Don't you worry, lad. The wisdom will take good care of him, and the Light will take care of us all. And if the Light doesn't, well, we'll just take care of ourselves. Remember, we're Two Rivers folk. All he wanted from life was some good wine, a game of dice, and a pretty girl or three. Thom, if I ever look like acting the hero again, you kick me. I do read sometimes. Taking responsibility takes all the joy out of life, and drains a man to dust. I seem to have luck with dice. Blood and bloody ashes! Dance well with a woman and she's halfway yours. I have no intention of marrying. And I have no intention of dying, either, whether I am supposed to live again or not... Nothing like a little dance with Trollocs to ready you for sleep. Right, Aviendha? Fool women! Now I have to keep their bacon from burning instead of looking after my own! Never kiss a girl whose brothers have knife scars. I may be a fool, but I intend to be a live fool. I came to bloody rescue you. Burn me if I expected to be greeted as if I had come to steal a pie. Bad habits pay off in the long run. Had Nynaeve and Elayne been cavorting with Jaichim Carridin and Elaida in the fountain beneath that statue of some long dead queen two spans or more tall and pointing to the sea, he would have passed it without a second look. No wine for me. Strange enough things happen when my head is clear. I want to know the difference. Does 'Daughter of the Nine Moons' mean anything to you? I wonder if she would like to dance. Remember, you can find a way out of any difficulty if you keep your eyes and wits sharp, but if you don’t, you’ll trip over your own feet. I may be a fool, but I intend to be a live fool. He knew what it took to get into the histories. A man could get killed doing that sort of thing. Luck is a horse to ride like any other. We are going to tickle some Aes Sedai under the chin, rescue a mule, and put a snip-nosed girl on the Lion Throne. Oh, yes. That's Aviendha. Don't look at her cross-wise or she'll try to cut your throat and probably slit her own by mistake. A thousand years of sheep! I came to bloody rescue you. Burn me if I expected to be treated as if I'd come to steal a pie. It's good to be lucky. I'll bet there's treasure inside. If the world is ending, a woman will take time to tell a man something he's done wrong. Almost dead yesterday, maybe dead tomorrow, but alive, gloriously alive, today. I am going to start having 'I am not a bloody lord' embroidered on my coat. Before I knew what was happening, I had a fistful of spears around my neck like a collar. I could have shaved myself with one sneeze. A beautiful battle is one you don't have to fight. Dance with her, and she will forgive much; dance well, and she will forgive anything. I'm a gambler, a farmboy, and I'm here to take command of your bloody army. Halt here! Now! By the order of the Lord Dragon! Else he channel your head into your belly and feed you your own feet for breakfast! She is my wife. Your bloody Daughter of the Nine Moons is my wife! What's life like if you don't take a chance now and then? The bloody Power, and no bloody choice. Carai an Ellisande! Al Ellisande! Mordero daghain pas duente cuebiyar! Al Ellisande! There are only two times a woman admits she is wrong: when she wants something and when it snows at midsummer. I'm no lord. I've more respect for myself than that. And if she tries Mistress Snoot with me too often, I'll bloody well kick her! Dovie'andi se tovya sagain. Only a fool married, and only a madman would marry Nynaeve. Both of them? Light! Two! Oh, burn me! He's the luckiest man in the world or the biggest fool since creation! Well, I'll not be the one to pull his bacon off the coals. He's the one who can channel. If he's put his head in a hornet's nest, he can bloody channel his way out of it. That woman has more hands than any six women I ever met. Are you deaf as well as blind, woman? I'm not a carpet to walk over and I distinctly heard myself speak. If I pinch your bottom, you can slap my face, but until I do, I expect a civil word for a civil word! When the poor blind fool they've chosen out for their Amyrlin gets here, I will do the talking. She can't be very bright, or they'd never have been able to shove her into the job. I don't care who Nynaeve thumps so long as it is not me. No offense, Rand, but I think I will just sleep as far away from you as I can, if you don't mind. Kneel and swear to the Lord Dragon, or you will be knelt. Victors write history. Asha'man, kill! Schemes within schemes. The Great Serpent is a good sign for you Aes Sedai, I think. Someday you may swallow yourselves by accident. Some oaths are more important than others. Better ten days of love, than years of regretting. What is a nine horse hitch, anyway? Fall in love with a man, and you end up doing laundry, even if it does belong to another man. The Pattern has a great deal to answer for. I don't think any man is worth this. Men! Too blind to see what a stone could see, and too stubborn to be trusted to think for themselves. I want to get drunk as a drowned mouse, and fast! Just because fate has chosen something for you instead of you choosing it for yourself doesn't mean that it has to be bad. Even if it's something you are sure you would never have chosen in a hundred years. Ha! That face would make a goat faint! If you meet a woman - the most beautiful woman you've ever seen - run! Go juggle something. A man is a maze of brambles in darkness, and even he does not know the way. My way is best. Softly, softly, in the shadows. I shall have to see. I do not know how well I could compete against a gleeman. You were right about Bela, Rand. She has a good heart, and as much stubbornness as the rest of you Two Rivers Folk.

All dead! It's time to toss the dice. Narg no hurt. They also kept giving him gifts of garlic for some reason, which he ate with great pleasure. As my Lord says, my Lord's leg is not a side of beef. Thank you, my Lord, for instructing me. Only a fool obeys another's command to push him over a cliff. Who wants a man she can make jump through hoops whenever she likes? Only a ninny thinks she can threaten people, Elayne, and still get anywhere. I do not have to make sense. *sniff* A storm is coming. Whatever in the world made you think of trying to bully them?

Maybe they're letting him sleep on silk, but a prisoner is still a prisoner. Burn me! I'm a bloody blacksmith. Nobody tells us how to be men. We just are. It's all sort of complicated, but it just happened. Nothing to do with ta'veren. All we met were Tinkers and some Whitecloaks. On the whole, singing with the Tinkers was more fun than the Whitecloaks. A Warder once told me Trollocs call the Aiel Waste 'the Dying Ground.' I mean to make them give that name to the Two Rivers. I'll bet you get to run away a lot. Out! Out, woman! Out, now! Or I will throw you out, and I will throw you so far you bounce twice! Rand is the one who's supposed to go mad, and here I am, talking to an axe! There is a wickedness loose in the world, I fear, and whatever you pretend, you are not so wicked that it will not gobble you up. Only an Aiel would wish you good night by saying they hope you don't die in your sleep. I can rest when I'm dead. I was thinking. Sometimes I think too much. I have heard it said that you should believe nothing you hear, and only half of what you see. What kind of need would be great enough that we'd want the Dragon to save us from it? As well ask for help from the Dark One. If a sword had memory, it might be grateful to the forge fire, but never fond of it. I will ask one more time. What do you want? Answer, or leave. By the door or a window; your choice Come against me, if you dare! I am the storm! Come if you dare, Shai'tan! I am the Dragon Reborn! I'm not Aiel, Lord Barthanes, and I'm not of the royal line, either. Perrin had such a serene marriage, with a smiling, gentle wife I trust you like a brother. Until the day you betray me. All women are Aes Sedai. That is always important, Mat, who stays alive. It's like dice. You can't win if you can't play, and you can't play if you're dead.

If you're going to fight a battle, who better to pay the butcher's bill than men who want you dead? If I will die at Tarmon Gai'don, I will die as myself. The light shine on you, Lord Ingtar of House Shinowa, and may you shelter in the palm of the Creator's hand. The last embrace of the Mother welcome you home. Maybe having the Wisdom show up is no great affair to you, but I'd as soon have the Whitecloaks here, myself. Tell him, no truce with the Forsaken. No truce with the Shadow. Play 'March of Death'. Play it, unless you know a sadder song. Play something to make your soul weep. If you have one still. I will never serve you, Father of Lies. In a thousand lives, I never have. I know that. I'm sure of it. Come. It is time to die. My Lady... why would I summon you at this time of night? I'm the one who's supposed to go mad, Aes Sedai, but you already are. Whatever can be done, can be undone. The Wisdom in my village could cure anything. She knows more about herbs than anybody I've ever met. I learned a little from her, which are safe, which not. Sleep, Fedwin. I told you to make weapons, Taim. Show me just how deadly they are. Disperse the Shaido. Break them. For the young, death is an enemy they wish to try their strength against. For those of us a little older, she is an old friend, an old lover, but one we are not eager to meet again soon. I like reading erotica, sometimes. Read and find out. I created these characters, and I am an Old Testament God with my fist in the middle of their lives. To stand against the Shadow so long as iron is hard and stone abides. To defend the Malkieri while one drop of blood remains. To avenge what cannot be defended. My heart rises with the sun. An arrow may not be a shocklance, yet it can still kill you. Your carneira wears part of your soul as a ribbon in her hair forever. Killing is as easy as dying, any fool can do either. A ship is alive... treat him well and care for him properly and he will fight for you against the worst sea. An Aes Sedai never lies, but the truth she speaks may not be the truth you think you hear. Lean back on your knife and let your tongue go free. The more women there are about, the softer a wise man steps. The dancing is sweeter on the edge of a sword. Take what you want, and pay for it. Trust no one but your self, and yourself not too much. Be aware of everything, even when asleep. Only the dead can afford oblivion. Death is lighter than a feather, duty heavier than a mountain. The best secret to reveal is the face behind a lady's veil, the most deadly is that of an Illuminator's spark. The Wheel of Time turns around Tar Valon, and Tar Valon turns around the Tower. There is a difference between being proud of a grand fireplace in your hall and walking into the flames. A cat for a hat, or a hat for a cat, but nothing for nothing. Whoever holds the Stone of Tear is Lord of Tear, city and nation. The look of the Eyeless is fear. Do not trouble trouble till trouble troubles you.

The louder a man tells you he's honest, the harder you must hold on to your purse. Time to dance with Jak o' the Shadows. On the heights, the paths are paved with daggers. Fear will keep you cautious; caution will keep you alive. The way back will come but once. Be steadfast. Peace favor your sword. A Darkfriend wouldn't care if my brother died in a cage. The Oaths hold us together, a stated set of beliefs that bind us all, a single thread running through every sister, living or dead, back to the first to lay her hands on the Oath Rod. They are what make us Aes Sedai, not saidar. When there are fish heads and blood in the water, you don't need to see the silverpike to know they are there. Trust is as slippery as a basket of eels, sometimes. The weak must be bold cautiously. The stone easiest carved is easiest crumbled.

The Law of Unintended Consequences, stronger than any written Law.

When a young woman's cheeks redden for no apparent reason, there is usually a man involved. Teach him how you will, a pig will never play the flute. Often you don't know whether a woman is friend, enemy, or lover until it is too late. Sometimes, she is all three. I may be an old fool, but I will be an old fool in my own way. A fine woman, if she were not Aes Sedai. Meddle with that sort, and you get more than your fingers burned. In wars, boy, fools kill other fool for foolish causes. And I make a point of never knowing anything about Aes Sedai. Much safer that way. I saw Elaida in the street the other day. If she knew I was here, she would peel my hide off in strips, and then she would stop being pleasant. I'm only an old gleeman. Who could I possibly be dangerous to? A woman will kill you for half the reason of a man, but cry twice as hard afterward. Horrible woman, if we had turned her loose on the Trollocs, she'd have had them all sweeping and mopping. You wait here - and try not to eat the table. Obviously, Selucia miscounted with the ants. Bloody Matrim Cauthon is my husband. That is the wording you used, is it not?

A woman's flaming rights are whatever she flaming says they are. That's what women in Shienar say, anyway. Oh, I do remember you. The one with the fla- the mouth. Ragan thought you could skin and butcher a blo- bull at ten paces with your tongue. Chaena and Nangu thought fifty. Bring your lightnings, Aes Sedai. I will dance with them. The Mistress of Novices thought I was too hard on my students. Her name was Sereille Bagand. I do eat. It's just that everything tastes like ashes. Always plan for the worst, that way all your surprises will be pleasant ones. A man who trades with a Domani needs three sets of wits. We come, brother. We hunt. DELETE!
