Quotes - CItazioni in inglese della saga - SPOILER

qui un topic per me in pratica XD e lexxan ed iron bars se passano ed hanno voglia di scrivere XD

è ovviamente dedicato a chi ha completato la saga e può apprezzare certe cose

inizio con la citazione più "caratteristica" di tutta la saga, cioè il pensiero di Kalam dopo che in House of Chains acquista i pugnali dal mercante Pardu, quello con l'otataral e quello incantato da bellurdan:

And now this House of Chains. The damned Crippled God—
You damned fool, Cotillion. You were there at the last Chaining, weren’t you? You should have stuck a knife in the bastard right there and then


leggere questa frase nel quarto libro dopo aver finito la saga fa un certo effeto vero? ^^

'Well,' Cotillion said, 'didn't you write it?'
Shadowthrone shifted about 'I was busy.'
'So who did?'
Shadowthrone would not answer.
Cotillion's brows rose. 'Not Pust! The Book of Shadows, where he's proclaimed the Magus of High House Shadow?'
'It's called delegation.' Shadowthrone snapped.
'It's called idiocty.'

"Tell me, Tool, what dominates your thoughts?"
The Imass shrugged before replying. "I think of futility, Adjunct."
"Do all Imass think of futility?"
"No few think at all."
"Why is that?"
The Imass leaned his head to one side and regarded her. "Because, Adjunct, it is futile."

ma oggi mi passa per la testa questa frase senza un motivo particolare:

Among the Rhivi of North Genebackis, there was a saying. A man who stirs awake the serpent is a man without fear. A man without fear has forgotten the rules of life.
Silanah heard their songs and prayers.
And she watched.
Sometimes mortals did indeed forget. Sometimes, mortals needed . . . reminding."
