Steven Erikson Quotes

A Man Does Not Marry A Girl, Nor A Woman. He Marries A Promise, And It Shines With A Bright Purity That Is Ageless. It Shines, In Other Words, With The Glory Of Lies. The Deception Is Self Inflicted. The Promise Was Simple In Its Form, As Befitted The Thick-headedness Of Young Men, And In Its Essence It Offered The Delusion That The Present Moment Was Eternal; That Nothing Would Change; Not The Fires Of Desire, Not The Flesh Itself, Not The Intense Look In The Eye.
