Wizards Rules
- "People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they're afraid it might be true. Peoples' heads are full of knowledge, facts and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool." - Wizard's First Rule, page 560[1]
- "The greatest harm can result from the best intentions." - Stone of Tears, Chapter 63, page 886
- "Passion rules reason." - Blood of the Fold, Chapter 43, page 360
- "There is magic in sincere forgiveness. Magic to heal. In forgiveness you grant, and more so in the forgiveness you receive." - Temple of the Winds, Chapter 41, page 318
- "Mind what people do, not only what they say, for deeds will betray a lie." - Soul of the Fire, Chapter 28, page 205
- "The most important rule there is, the Wizard's Sixth Rule: the only sovereign you can allow to rule you is reason. The first law of reason is this: what exists, exists, what is, is and from this irreducible bedrock principle, all knowledge is built. It is the foundation from which life is embraced." — Richard - Faith of the Fallen, Chapter 41, pages 459-60
- "Life is the future, not the past. The past can teach us, through experience, how to accomplish things in the future, comfort us with cherished memories, and provide the foundation of what has already been accomplished. But only the future holds life. To live in the past is to embrace what is dead. To live life to its fullest, each day must be created anew. As rational, thinking beings, we must use our intellect, not a blind devotion to what has come before, to make rational choices." - The Pillars of Creation, Chapter 60, page 549
- "Talga Vassternich. Deserve Victory." - Naked Empire, Chapter 61, page 626

- "The rule of all rules. The rule unwritten." The Unwritten rule. Knowledge is earned not given. - Confessor, Chapter 65, page
