Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

In my years as a priest and a scientist, I have been guided by two allied principles," Gianni began. "One, that the universe was created for a purpose.

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

We are closest to Christ when sharing the world's misery. Think you Jesus came to remove our pains? Wherever did you get that notion?

For the Creator, the past is never lost, never beyond recovery - because it can always be reclaimed by weaving it into a wider pattern of ultimate goodness so that even the most horrendous disasters of life may come to play a significant part in achieving the intended purpose of Creation. In this way, the past can be redeemed. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

As I understand it, the Celts venerated all sorts of plexus-type things: the seashore, dawn, dusk, the edge of the forest - anything that was neither here nor there, so to speak. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

It is the poor man who clenches so tightly to the gold he is given - for fear of losing it. The man of wealth spends his gold freely to accomplish his will in the world. It is the same with life.'
Suddenly ashamed of my conspicuous poverty, I lowered my eyes. But Scatha placed a hand beneath my chin and raised my head. 'Cling too tightly to your life and you will lose it, my Reluctant Warrior. You must become the master of your life, not its slave. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

See here, if a simple act of kindness or generosity, such as buying a loaf of bread for some poor working women, can mean that wholesale death and destruction will be avoided why, a man would be a monster who had it in his power to alleviate all that suffering yet stood by and did nothing. — Stephen R.

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

J. R. R. Tolkien, undisputedly a most fluent speaker of this language, was criticized in his day for indulging his juvenile whim of writing fantasy, which was then considered - as it still is in many quarters - an inferior form of literature and disdained as mere "escapism." "Of course it is escapist," he cried. "That is its glory! When a soldier is a prisoner of war it is his duty to escape - and take as many with him as he can." He went on to explain, "The moneylenders, the knownothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we're partisans of liberty, then it's our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as possible. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Oh, but once my memories had pulsed with the blood-heat of life. In desperation, I forced myself to recall that once, I had walked with kings and conversed in languages never heard in this land. Once I had stood at the prow of a Sea Wolf ship and sailed oceans unknown to seamen here. I had ridden horses through desert lands, and dined on exotic foods in Arab tents. I had roamed Constantinople's fabled streets, and bowed before the Holy Roman Emperor's throne. I had been a slave, a spy, a sailor. Advisor and confidant of lords, I had served Arabs, Byzantines, and barbarians. I had worn captive's rags, and the silken robes of a Sarazen prince. Once I had held a jeweled knife and taken a life with my own hand. Yes, and once I had held a loving woman in my arms and kissed her warm and willing lips ... Death would have been far, far better than the gnawing, aching emptiness that was now my life. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Then again, what Cosimo had said was right: he was nothing but an overworked drone in a cube farm, a minor cog in the dreary machinery of a third-rate mortgage mill, overlooked, unloved, a sidelined player in the big game, — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

And then, just as I begin to raise my sword to cleave a path to Arthur's side, there comes a sound like a tempest wind - the blast of a mighty sea gale. Men fall back, suddenly afraid. They cover their heads with their arms and peer into the darkness above. What is it? Is the roof falling? The sky?
The strange sound subsides and they glance at one another in fear and awe. Merlin is there. The Emrys is standing calmly beside Arthur. His hands are empty and upraised, his face stern in the unnatural silence he has created ... — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Over and over again, we see that when anyone willingly gives whatever resources they have to Him - whether it is nothing more than five smooth stones gathered from a dry streambed or five little loaves of bread and two dried sprats - then God's greater purpose can proceed. Small and insignificant? Undoubtedly. But on the day of decision, everything depended on those five smooth stones - with them, David killed Goliath and saved a nation. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Jump blind and you might find yourself on the rim of a raging volcano, or smack in the middle of a battlefield during a savage war, or on a swiftly tilting ice floe in a tempest-tossed sea. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

I have seen a land shining with goodness, where each man protects his brother's dignity as readily as his own, where war and want have ceased and all races live under the same law of love and honour.
I have seen a land bright with truth, where a man's word is his pledge and falsehood is banished, where children sleep safe in their mother's arms and never know fear or pain.
I have seen a land where kings extend their hands in justice rather than reach for the sword; where mercy, kindness, and compassion flow like deep water over the land, and men revere virtue, revere truth, revere beauty, above comfort, pleasure or selfish gain. A land where peace reigns in the hill, and love like a fire from every hearth; where the True God is worshipped and his ways acclaimed by all. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

To behold Queen Gwenhwyvar and the Lady of the Lake together was to peer too long into the sun's brilliant dazzle, to feel the heart lurch in the breast for yearning, to have the words stolen from the tongue before the lips could speak them. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Arthur is no fit king. Uther's bastard, Merlin's pawn, he is lowborn and a fool. He is wanton and petty and cruel. A glutton and a drunkard, he lacks all civilized graces. In short, he is a sullen, ignorant brute.
All these things and more men say of Arthur. Let them. When all the words are spoken and the arguements fall exhausted into silence, this single fact remains: we would follow Arthur to the very gates of Hell and beyond if he asked it. And that is the solitary truth.
Show me another who can claim such loyalty. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

All he had, in fact, was Merlin's shining promise. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

And I wondered if he knew how well, how naturally he led. Was it, in the end, so different leading men? Was it not much the same - picking out the trail, deciding the safest way, strengthening the unsure step with words of encouragement, guiding, going ahead, but not too far ahead - was not trailcraft much the same as kingcraft? — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

If she had ever once in her life given the realities of life in seventeenth-century Bohemia a fleeting thought - and she most certainly had not - she would have pictured a world of superstition and suffering where obscenely rich and powerful aristocrats oppressed the miserable mass of grimy peasants whose lives were nasty, brutish, and short. Yet the folk she observed bustling around her, while admittedly grimy and short, seemed a fairly happy lot - judging solely from the air of amiable bonhomie permeating the Old Town square. Everywhere she looked, people were smiling, laughing, greeting one another with formal handshakes and kisses. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

How is a man fortunate to live in the darkness, brother?"
"Why do you wonder?" asked Blaise. "For only he who has lived in darkness truly knows and values the light. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

People did not go jumping from one place to another with nothing in between. It simply did not happen. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

There was a rightness to things that surpassed understanding, but she knew beyond all doubt that in each and every circumstance her feet had been guided along this path and to this place. A favourite saying in China - which she had heard on occasion from her own grandmother - was that the threads of life are easy to weave, but difficult to untangle. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

The Queen of Air and Darkness tilted back her head and laughed. A more ghastly sound I hope never to hear. 'Do you think I care about these trifles?'
'Murder is no trifle, woman,' Arthur said.
'No? How many men have you killed, Great King? How many have you slain without cause? How many did you cut down that you might have spared? How many died because you in your battle-rage would not heed their pleas for mercy?'
The High King opened his mouth to speak, but could make no answer. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

It does not do to hurry the archer, it makes him miss. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

It had long been an ambition to find the line of force that might lead to the Holy Land in the time of Christ. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

I tell you the truth, a man may not make himself king; only the blessing of him who holds the kingship can elevate a man to that high place. For sovereignty is a sacred trust that may not be bartered or sold; still less may it be stolen or taken by force. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

She walked along beneath a sky of bird's-egg blue, — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

I desperately wanted a chance to prove myself. Not because I cared a fart for druids. No. I had instead conceived a new plan for escape. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Albion was many times larger in every way than the tidily compacted Britain I had left behind. Judging from the distances traveled, Albion was immense; both the land and the world that contained it were far more expansive than anything I could have dreamed. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

It does not matter where one starts; it is where one finishes that makes all the difference. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

I raised my spear to heaven. 'For God and Britain!' I cried, and my cry was answered in kind. And then I was racing down the hillside, my cloak rippling out behind me, the wind singing from my dark-glinting spearhead. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

In short, you have all the social prospects of a garden gnome. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

This is our work in creation: to decide. And what we decide is woven into the thread of time and being forever. Choose wisely, then, but you must choose." Great — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Talent without discipline is only an empty promise - the glitter of an unworked crystal. It is nothing of itself. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Prayer is our greatest and most salutary weapon in the eternal battle," put in the man called Schecter, joining them. He took a sip of coffee and continued, "No less than gravity, prayer is one of the elemental forces that moves the world. We underestimate it at our peril. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Just when I begin to imagine I have achieved some pinnacle of understanding, reached the summit of the highest climb . . . I scramble the last few feet to the top only to see that I have merely gained a foothold on a narrow plateau and that entire new mountain ranges rise before me, serried ranks of peaks, each one higher than the last. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Young Bran, striving to please and yearning for the approving touch of a father's hand, only ever saw that hand raised in anger. Thus, he learned at an early age that since he could never please his father, he might as well please himself. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

The spell is Morgians — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Great Light, the Enemy's power is so fragile! The devils can use only what we ourselves will give them. Do you see? Give them nothing and their power fails; it falls like a spent arrow, like a blade broken and blunted. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

He sighed and shook his head slowly. 'And there will be no bringing back the light once it has gone. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

It is but one of the many follies of luxury which lead men to believe that plenty now is abundance always and fortune is everlasting. Pure folly. My — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

The air crackled with the presage of lightning, and a heavy mist descended around them. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Fear arises from uncertainty. Where there is perfect certainty, there is no fear. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

She stood watching a ritual she had seen many times before, yet which now seemed odd and extremely archaic; as if everything - the hill, the ox, the Mage, the cauldron, the king, the people looking on - everything belonged to a time so far away, so obscurely ancient that it could no longer be comprehended, only felt in the pulse of blood that flowed through her veins. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Alea iacta est. The die has been cast. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Life is a school of the spirit, Aidan," Ruadh intoned with gentle insistence. "Learning is our soul's requirement, and — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Every religious figure in history achieved enlightenment between the ages of twenty-five and thirtyfive. That seems to be when human consciousness comes fully into its own and acquires a finer spiritual perception. Perhaps it simply takes that long to develop. In any case, it's a well-documented phenomenon. Look it up sometime. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

I could not see the unholy creature, but I could feel the bone-aching chill of its presence, and I heard the howl of its mindless hate. I quailed to think of the power that had called it into being and loosed it on the world. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

We will journey in hope, and trust the Swift Sure Hand to guide us.'
'A little guidance would not go amiss right now,' I confessed, gazing out at the trackless waste of hills and empty sky.
'Llew,' he said, 'we have ever been led. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Arthur's fingers tighten on the silver-braided hilt: see how naturally it fits his hand! He pulls.
The Sword of Britain slides from its stone sheath. The ease with which this is accomplished shines in the wonder in Arthur's eyes. He truly cannot believe what he has done. Nor can he comprehend what it means. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

All human beings, by virtue of having been born into this world, are immortal beings - not our material bodies; those are sadly quite fragile, inasmuch as they are bound by the laws of matter and time. The spirit, however, is indestructible. It obeys different laws. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Contrary to what many may think, immortality is not a fairy tale invented to compensate for an unhappy life. Rather, it is the perception shared by nearly all sentient beings that our conscious lives are not bounded by this time and space. We are not merely lumps of animate matter. We are living spirits - we all feel this innately. And in our deepest hearts, we know that we can only find ultimate fulfilment in union with the supreme spiritual reality - a reality that appears, even during this earthly life, to take us beyond the narrow limits of time. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

For ourselves, Mighty Father, I pray you keep us from the sin of hatred, keep us from the sin of vengeance, keep us from the sin of despair, but protect us from the wicked schemes of our enemies. Walk with us now on this uncertain road. Send angels to go before us, angels to go behind, angels on either side, angels above and below - guarding, shielding, encompassing." He paused for a moment and then added, "May the Holy One give us the courage of righteousness and grant us strength for this day and through all things whatsoever shall befall us. Amen. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

I began to sense a momentous glory radiating from every form that met my eye- every limb and leaf, every blade of grass ablaze with the unutterable grandeur and majesty. And it seemed to me that the world I saw before me was merely an outward manifestation of a vastly powerful, deeply fundamental reality that existed just out of sight. I might not discern this veiled reality directly, but I could perceive its effects. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Pity." The elder gentleman sniffed. "Sad, really. Names are very important." "It's a matter of taste, surely." "Nothing of the sort," replied the elder Cosimo. "People get named all sorts of things - that I will concede. Whimsy, ignorance, sudden inspiration - all play a part. But if anyone guessed how monumentally important it was, the process would be taken a lot more seriously. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

I searched until I panted for breath, but could not find it. The solid stone structure was nowhere to be seen. The house was gone - and Merlin with it. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

When heaven joins the battle against you, who could stand? — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

The Emrys! The Emrys is here!'

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

When iniquity sits in the judgement seat, good men must take their appeals to a higher court. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

We kissed, then, and the ardour of her kiss stole my breath away. I returned her passion with all the fervor I possessed. A lifetime of vows and heart-felt disciplines had prepared me well, for in that kiss I sealed with all my soul the fate before me, embracing a mystery clothed in warm and yielding female flesh. Holding only the moment, with neither thought nor care for the future, I kissed her, and drank deep the strong wine of desire. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Truth, they say, is a cold and bitter draught; few drink it undiluted. — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

Great Light, Mover of all that is moving and at rest, be my Journey and my far Destination, be my Want and my Fulfilling, be my Sowing and my Reaping, be my glad Song and my stark Silence. Be my Sword and my strong Shield, be my Lantern and my dark Night, be my everlasting Strength and my piteous Weakness. Be my Greeting and my parting Prayer, be my bright Vision and my Blindness, be my Joy and my sharp Grief, be my sad Death and my sure Resurrection! — Stephen R. Lawhead

Stephen Lawhead Quotes By Stephen R. Lawhead

To friends! Life belongs to those who love, and where love reigns is man truly king! — Stephen R. Lawhead
