“People," Geralt turned his head, "like to invent monsters and monstrosities. Then they seem less monstrous themselves. When they get blind-drunk, cheat, steal, beat their wives, starve an old woman, when they kill a trapped fox with an axe or riddle the last existing unicorn with arrows, they like to think that the Bane entering cottages at daybreak is more monstrous than they are. They feel better then. They find it easier to live.”

“You can't stop a soldier from being frightened but you can give him motivation to help him overcome that fear. I have no such motivation. I can't have. I'm a witcher: an artificially created mutant. I kill monsters for money. I defend children when their parents pay me to. If Nilfgaardian parents pay me, I'll defend Nilfgaardian children. And even if the world lies in ruin - which does not seem likely to me - I'll carry on killing monsters in the ruins of this world until some monster kills me. That is my fate, my reason, my life and my attitude to the world. And it is not what I chose. It was chosen for me.”

“You won't do it.' Bonhart's voice resounded in the complete silence. 'You won't do it, witcher girl. In Kaer Morhen you were taught how to kill, so you kill like a machine. Instinctively. To kill yourself you need character, strength, determination and courage. And they couldn't teach you that.”

“I am very tired. I watched the death of my friends who followed me here to the end of the world. They came to rescue your daughter. Not even knowing her. Apart from Cahir, none of them even knew Ciri. But they came here to rescue her. For there was something in her that was decent and noble. And what happened? They found death. I consider that unjust. And if anyone wants to know, I don’t agree with it. Because a story where the decent ones die and the scoundrels live and carry on doing what they want is full of shit. I don’t have any more strength, Emperor.”

“I'm not surprised at Yennefer,' he said as he walked. 'She is a woman and thus an evolutionary inferior creature, governed by hormonal chaos. But you, Geralt, are not only a man who is sensible by nature, but also a mutant, invulnerable to emotions.' He waved a hand. There was a boom and a flash. A lightning bolt bounced off the shield Yennefer had conjured up. 'In spite of your good sense—' Vilgefortz continued to talk, pouring fire from hand to hand '—in one matter you demonstrate astounding and foolish perseverance: you invariably desire to row upstream and piss into the wind. It had to end badly. Know that today, here, in Stygga Castle, you have pissed into a hurricane.”

“Night and day the streets resounded with music, song, and the clinking of chalices and tankards, for it is well known that nothing is such thirsty work as the acquisition of knowledge.”

“I visited towns and fortresses. I looked for proclamations nailed to posts at the crossroads. I looked for the words ‘Witcher urgently needed.’ And then there’d be a sacred site, a dungeon, necropolis or ruins, forest ravine or grotto hidden in the mountains, full of bones and stinking carcasses. Some creature which lived to kill, out of hunger, for pleasure, or invoked by some sick will. A manticore, wyvern, fogler, aeschna, ilyocoris, chimera, leshy, vampire, ghoul, graveir, werewolf, giant scorpion, striga, black annis, kikimora, vypper… so many I’ve killed. There’d be a dance in the dark and a slash of the sword, and fear and distaste in the eyes of my employer afterward.”

“Zło to zło, Stregoborze – rzekł poważnie wiedźmin, wstając. – Mniejsze, większe, średnie, wszystko jedno, proporcje są umowne, a granice zatarte. Nie jestem świątobliwym pustelnikiem, nie samo dobro czyniłem w życiu. Ale jeżeli mam wybierać pomiędzy jednym złem a drugim, to wolę nie wybierać wcale.”

“As I said, your view on religion is known to me, it’s never particularly bothered me and, no doubt, it won’t bother me in the future. I’m not a fanatic. You’ve a right to believe that we’re governed by Nature and the Force hidden within her. You can think that the gods, including my Melitele, are merely a personification of this power invented for simpletons so they can understand it better, accept its existence. According to you, that power is blind. But for me, Geralt, faith allows you to expect what my goddess personifies from nature: order, law, goodness. And hope.”

“No', he thought. 'I don't want it to be like that. I'm tired. Too tired to accept the perspective of endings which are beginnings, and starting everything over again.”

“– Погоди. Сначала я хочу тебе кое-что сказать. Открыть некую тайну.
– И что ж ты можешь мне сказать? – фыркнул он. – Что такое, чего я не знаю, ты можешь мне открыть? Какую такую истину ты можешь мне прояснить?
– А такую, что ты не проплывешь под мостом.”

“Русти повернулся.
– Мы не сумеем сделать больше, чем в состоянии сделать, – сказал он тише и теплее. – Но давайте постараемся все, чтобы того, что мы сделать не сможем, было по возможности меньше.”

“Старушка замолчала. Ненадолго. Слушатели не торопили ее, видя, как она улыбается своим воспоминаниям. Своей храбрости. Маячившим в тумане забвения лицам тех, что геройски погибли. Лицам тех, что геройски выжили… Для того, чтобы потом их подло прикончила водка, наркотики и туберкулез.
– Да, мы были равно мужественны, – закончила Джулия Абатемарко, – ни одной стороне не удавалось набрать столько сил, чтобы быть более мужественной. Но мы… Нам удалось быть мужественными на одну минуту дольше.”

“Русти хмыкнул, но тут же насупился.
– Шани! Немедленно ко мне! Запомни, девчонка, – проговорил он сквозь стиснутые зубы, наклонившись над разрубленной ногой. – Хирург может позволить себе быть циничным только после десяти лет практики. Запомнила?”

“– Прогресс – навроде стада свиней. Так и надо на этот прогресс смотреть, так его и следует расценивать. Как стадо свиней, бродящих по гумну и двору. Факт существования стада приносит сельскому хозяйству выгоду. Есть рульки, есть солонина, есть холодец с хреном. Словом – польза! А посему нечего нос воротить потому, мол, что всюду насрано.”

“Some of the flames were tall and strong, burning brightly and vividly, while others were tiny, flickering and quavering, and their light diminished and died. At the very end was but one tiny flame, so weak it barely flickered and glimmered, now struggling to flare up, now almost going out entirely.
"Whose is the dying flame?" asked the Witcher.
"Yours." Death replied.”

“But you have changed this world. At first, you used force to change it. You treated it as anything that falls into your hands. Now it looks as it the world has started to fit in with you. It’s given way to you. It’s given in.”

“The blade, freed by the half-turn, floated after him, shining, drawing a fan of red droplets in its wake. The streaming raven-black hair floated in the air, floated, floated, floated...
The head fell onto the gravel.
There are fewer and fewer monsters?
And I? What am I?
Who's shouting? The birds?
The woman in a sheepskin jacket and blue dress?
The roses from Nazair?
How quiet!
How empty. What emptiness.
Within me.”
