We are at war, and our security as a nation depends on winning that war.

Condoleezza Rice

But this I know; the writer who possesses the creative gift owns something of which he is not always master -- something that at times strangely wills and works for itself.

The real courage is in living and suffering for what you believe.

Christopher Paolini
