“Courage is a fickle creature. Just as you need it, it often makes excuses and rushes out of the room.”
“It needs a lot of courage to admit to an action that one is ashamed of and knows to be wrong. One's reluctance to hurt someone else is just an excuse; in fact it is lack of courage.”
“Luck is a fickle creature. She lovesmany, but is faithful to none.”
“Be not fickle with your riddles, Alasír,” she said. “You and I both suspect the same thing. Someone has been out here poking the bear, if you’ll excuse me crude analogy.”
“Don´t hesitate or allow yourself to make excuses. Just get out and do it. Just get out and do it. You will be very, very glad that you did.”
“Baby, I don't need an excuse to cuff you. I just need the opportunity.”
