1 " All good stories have parts, which make the crowd laugh. "
― Giles Kristian , Winter's Fire (The Rise of Sigurd, #2)
2 " My cock has been hiding since the day she arrived," Bjarni had said, but only when he was sure she was out of earshot, which was a full day after she left. "You worry for nothing brother," Bjorn had said, "for even a seiðr-wife (witch) cannot put a spell on something she can't see. It would be like trying to hit a louse with a spear-throw. "
3 " ...a good laughter is a best way to worm the stomachs. "
4 " depending on luck is like wanting to hold the water in your hand "
5 " He may be a king,but sometimes even the most fruitful,sweet apple can give sour fruits "
6 " -Ice forest doesn't care about the glory.-A cat doesn't care about the sea, but, still, it will smell it in the air. "
7 " If you live some rat's nest alone for the time, when you look it again, you'll be deep in the knees with those creatures. "
8 " Only a fool would wound a young boar and then turn his back and leave. "
9 " ...it's easier to make a promise than to keep it. "
10 " You croak about battle, but don't see the whole situation. Like the mackerel which swim below keel and don't know that above it is an entire ship. "
11 " ...the days of his glory have passed like the waves behind stern. "
12 " If I were you I would be proud. Such battle runes speak for us, Runa. They tell our tales as well as any skald. This rune of yours tells me that you are a survivor. A formidable young woman who possesses the strength for which you are named. "
13 " Blood for blood. Murder for murder, as is the way with these things. "
14 " It seems to me your family has a talent for making enemies,’ Drífa said as she and Runa walked on.Runa licked the blood from her cut palm. ‘That may be so, Drífa, but believe me when I say that we are not the kind of people you want for enemies. "
15 " All the treasures in a place like that. The riches which make men build such walls to keep other men out. "
16 " A woman knows when a man wants her. It is all over him and it is in his eyes and it is not as if men even know how to hide it or even want to try. "
17 " ...silence is not denying. "
18 " ...a reputation can be a weapon of it's own, a thin cold blade which cuts the enemy his womb while he can't sleep during the night. "
19 " Does a hound care about to a fly's greeting? "
20 " ...a youth, who considers that he knows all, is needed a lesson about how he hasn't learned anything yet. "
