Heir of Novron (The Riyria Revelations, #5-6)

by Michael J. Sullivan

“Happiness comes from moving toward something. When you run away, ofttimes you bring your misery with you.”

‘When you expect nothing from the world—not the light of the sun, the wet of water, nor the air to breathe—everything is a wonder and every moment a gift.’ ”

“Desire can be painful, but so can regret.”

A beautiful day might bring disaster, while a day that begins trapped inside an ancient tomb might be the best one of your life. If you don’t abandon hope on pleasant days, why do so on those that begin poorly?”

‘Life is only precious if you wish it to be.’ I look at it like the last bite of a wonderful meal—do you enjoy it, or does the knowledge that there is no more to follow make it so bitter that you would ruin the experience?”
