Quotes from A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula Le
Guin
Mastery is nine times patience.
To hear, one must be silent.
To light a candle is to cast a shadow.
Heal the wound and cure the illness, but let
the dying spirit go.
It is no secret. All power is one in source and
end, I think. Years and distances, stars and candles, water and wind
and wizardry, the craft in a man's hand and the wisdom in a tree's
root: they all arise together. My name, and yours, and the true name
of the sun, or a spring of water, or an unborn child, all are
syllables of the great word that is very slowly spoken by the shining
of the stars. There is no other power. No other name.
Quotes from The Tombs of Atuan by Ursula Le
Guin
“Do you know how to read?"
"No. It is one of the black arts."
He nodded. "But a useful one," he
said.
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange
burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift
given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road
goes upward towards the light; but the laden traveler may never reach
the end of it.
