People are stupid... They will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they're afraid it might be true.

I often hear people say that they read to escape reality, but I believe that what they’re really doing is reading to find reason for hope, to find strength. While a bad book leaves readers with a sense of hopelessness and despair, a good novel, through stories of values realized, of wrongs righted, can bring to readers a connection to the wonder of life. A good novel shows how life can and ought to be lived. It not only entertains but energizes and uplifts readers.

I'd rather look a fool than be right and fail to act.

There is magic in sincere forgiveness - magic to heal.

Kahlan guide me. Kahlan teach me. Kahlan protect me. In your light I thrive. In your mercy I am sheltered. In your wisdom I am humbled. I live only to love you. My life is yours.

There is no place so dangerous as a world without magic.

Your life is yours and yours alone. Rise up and live it.
