Christopher Paolini Quotes

The future will be what it will, and fretting about it will only make your fears more likely to come true Picture Quote #1

Better to see widely than to see too closely and allow some feature of place or situation to catch you unawares. Do you understand? Picture Quote #1

He who stands like a pilar dies in battle. He who bends like a reed is triumphant! Picture Quote #1

It is an overactive imagination that turns men into cowards, not a surfeit of fear, as many believe Picture Quote #1

He inclined his head ever so slightly, displaying with his bearing the supreme confidence, even arrogance, that is the sole providence of cats, dragons, and certain highborn women Picture Quote #1

Anger has its place, but it will not serve you here, the way of the warrior is the way of knowing. Of that knowledge requires you to use anger, then you use anger, but you cannot wrest forth knowledge by losing your temper Picture Quote #1

Anger is poison. You must purge it from your mind or else it will corrupt your better nature Picture Quote #1

Basically, I would be happy with any profession where I got to be creative and make things Picture Quote #1

I love telling stories and I love writing so the fact that I can do it professionally is something that I’ve always been very grateful for Picture Quote #1

I’m the sort of person that starts digging a hole and doesn’t stop until it’s finished Picture Quote #1

The deeds of the children are a testament to the upbringing they received from their parents Picture Quote #1

Engaged in a fiery dance, their bodies were linked and seperated by the flashing blades. At times they nearly touched, taut skin only a hair’s breadth away, but then momentum would whirl them apart, and they would withdraw for a second, only to join again. Their sinuous forms wove together like twisting ropes of windblown smoke Picture Quote #1

First, let no one rule your mind or body. Take special care that your thoughts remain unfettered... Give men your ear, but not your heart. Show respect for those in power, but don’t follow them blindly. Judge with logic and reason, but comment not. Consider none your superior whatever their rank or station in life. Treat all fairly, or they will seek revenge. Be careful with your money. Hold fast to your beliefs and others will listen Picture Quote #1

Always it is thus with my new students, and especially with the human ones; the mind is the last muscle they train or use, and the one that they regard the least. Ask them about swordplay and they can list every blow from a duel a month old, but ask them to solve a problem or make a coherent statement and... well, I would be lucky to get more than a blank stare in return Picture Quote #1

The name, his true name, was weaker and more flawed than he would have liked, and he hated himself for that, but there was also much to admire within it, and the more he thought about it, the more he was able to accept the true nature of his self. He was not the best person in the world, but neither was he the worst Picture Quote #1

I agree that it’s important to be of a virtuous nature, but I would also contend that if you had to choose between giving a man a noble disposition or teaching him to think clearly, you’d do better to teach him to think clearly. Too many problems in this world are caused by men with noble dispositions and clouded minds Picture Quote #1

Well, I suppose I won’t see you for a while. So farewell, good luck, avoid roasted cabbage, don’t eat ear wax, and look on the bright side of life! Picture Quote #1

I don’t know how else to teach you what you need to learn except by showing you your mistakes over and over again until you stop making them Picture Quote #1

Death, he had come to believe, was a corrosive thing, and the more he was around it, the more it gnawed away at who he was Picture Quote #1

You of all people should know that everything in this world must be paid for, whether in gold, time, or blood Picture Quote #1

Then I guess we have no choice but to go forward. When have we ever had any choice but to go forward? Picture Quote #1
