1 " a society dedicated solely to the preservation of her past, soon has only her past to sell. "

― Michael Moorcock , Elric: Swords and Roses (Chronicles of the Last Emperor of Melniboné, #6)

2 " It is our firm belief that we shall one day learn the plan of the entire multiverse and travel at will from Sphere to Sphere, from realm to realm, from world to world, travel through the great clouds of shifting, multicoloured stars, the tumbling planets in all their millions, through galaxies that swarm like gnats in a summer garden, and rivers of light–glory beyond glory–pathways of moonbeams between the roaming stars. "

― Michael Moorcock , Elric: Swords and Roses (Chronicles of the Last Emperor of Melniboné, #6)

3 " We are friends to Death, but not His servants. "

― Michael Moorcock , Elric: Swords and Roses (Chronicles of the Last Emperor of Melniboné, #6)

4 " Three swift swords for the sisters three;
The first shall be of ivory;
The second sword's forged of rarest gold;
The third shall be cut from a granite fold.

The first sword's name is "Just Old Man";
And the second is called "The Urgent Brand";
While the third thirsty sword of that glamour'd three
Is the hungry blade named "Liberty".
--Ernest Wheldrake, Border Ballads "
