Quote of the Day

[Geel-Kajin]

Hello Guild,
I decided to create a quote of the day page because when ESO's out, there will be days when we fail, days when we succeed. As a result of that, something must reflect these results. It will be this page. There will be motivation here on days of defeat and humiliation, celebration here on days of success and strength. There will also be contemplation, consideration and the thoughts of all who contribute.

Anybody can contribute to this page. A quote may be anything you find special to yourself or to others of the Guild. It can even move away from being a quote-Song lyrics too can be added here. The only catch is that, as the title says, there can only be one quote a day. Try not to overlap.
So with this needing no further explanation, let's begin.

“How terrible," said Eragon, "to die alone, separate even from the one who is closest to you."

Everyone dies alone, Eragon. Whether you are a king on a battlefield or a lowly peasant lying in bed among your family, no one can accompany you into the void.”

-Eragon, Christopher Paolini

“Don't ask for guarantees. And don't look to be saved in any one thing, person, machine, or
library. Do your own bit of saving, and if you drown, at least die knowing you were heading for shore.”
