The Eye of the World (The Wheel of Time, #1)

by Robert Jordan

Why did you have to keep doing something just because it had always been done that way?

If you were going to do a thing, you might as well do the best you could.

The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again.

“In wars, boy, fools kill other fools for foolish causes.

People don’t always think or behave the way you might believe they would.

I will do what I can, but it is beyond my power to stop the Wheel from turning.”
