Author of quotes: Andrzej Sabkowski

Stregebor, - said Geralt. - This is the world. When you travel, you see a lot. Two are fighting over the border in the middle of the field, which tomorrow will be trampled by the horses of the squads of the two local counts, eager to destroy each other. Gallows hang in the trees along the roads, robbers cut the throats of merchants in the woods. In the cities, every now and then you stumble upon corpses in the gutters. In palaces they poke at each other with stilettos, and at feasts every now and then someone falls under the table, blue from poison. I'm used to it. So why should I worry about death threatening someone, moreover, threatening not me, but you?
