“A fearless heart is free of desire, a kind heart finds paradise everywhere.”
“Paradise was made for tender hearts; hell, for loveless hearts.”
“This was freedom; to feel what the heart desired with no thought to the opinion of the rest... She was free, for love liberates.”
“There have been times when I think we do not desire heaven, but more often I find myself wondering whether, in our heart of hearts, we have desired anything else.”
“Herein lies the heart and soul of the nations.Their right to be free men,Their desire to live in peace,Their courage to seek out truth,Herein lies the Sword of Shannara.”
“Certainly paradise, whatever, wherever it be, contains flaws. (Paradisical flaws, if you like.) If it did not, it would be incapable of drawing the hearts of men or angels.”
