I'll defend Nilfgaardian children. And even if the world lies in ruin - which does not seem likely to me - I'll carry on killing monsters in the ruins of this world until some monster has killed me. That is my fate, my reason, my life and my attitude to the world. And it is not what I chose. It was chosen for me.

Mude o nome da taberna para A Espada do Bruxo, para que nas noites de inverno aqui sejam contadas histórias sobre tesouros e monstros, sobre uma guerra sangrenta, sobre batalhas ferozes, sobre a morte. Sobre um grande amor e uma amizade inabalável. Sobre a coragem e a honra.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski

The blade, freed by the half-turn, floated after him, shining, drawing a fan of red droplets in its wake. The streaming raven-black hair floated in the air, floated, floated, floated... The head fell onto the gravel. There are fewer and fewer monsters? And I? What am I? Who's shouting? The birds? The woman in a sheepskin jacket and blue dress? The roses from Nazair? How quiet! How empty. What emptiness. Within me.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
People,' Geralt turned his head, 'like to invent monsters and monstrosities. Then they seem less monstrous themselves. When they get blind-drunk, cheat, steal, beat their wives, starve an old woman, when they kill a trapped fox with an axe or riddle the last existing unicorn with arrows, they like to think that the Bane entering cottages at daybreak is more monstrous than they are. They feel better then. They find it easier to live.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
Eu havia aprendido que confiar naqueles que pareciam inocentes só levava a corações partidos e devastação. Os monstros podiam exibir sorrisos amigáveis e, ao mesmo tempo, exalar a alma podre do Diabo nas fendas mais escuras de si mesmos.

In this sphere these monsters are foreign and there is no place for them.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
Itinerant killers of basilisks; travelling slayers of dragons and vodniks!
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
A las gente le gusta inventarse monstruos y monstruosidades, entonces parecen menos monstruosos asi mismos
