~ Andrzej Sapkowski

Z?o to z?o. Mniejsze, wi?ksze, ?rednie, wszystko jedno, proporcje s? umowne a granice zatarte (...), je?eli mam wybiera? pomi?dzy jednym z?em a drugim, to wol? nie wybiera? wcale.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
But I don't want to die in a war, because they're not my wars.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
It is easy to kill with a bow, girl. How easy it is to release the bowstring and think, it is not I, not I, it is the arrow. The blood of that boy is not on my hands. The arrow killed him, not I. But the arrow does not dream anything in the night. May you dream nothing in the night either
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
Z?o to z?o, Stregoborze - rzek? powa?nie wied?min wstaj?c. - Mniejsze, wi?ksze, ?rednie, wszystko jedno, proporcje s? umowne a granice zatarte. Nie jestem ?wi?tobliwym pustelnikiem, nie samo dobro czyni?em w ?yciu. Ale je?eli mam wybiera? pomi?dzy jednym z?em a drugim, to wol? nie wybiera? wcale.

You don't believe in it, you say. Well you're right, in a way. Only Evil and Greater Evil exist and beyond them, in the shadows, lurks True Evil.

And sometimes, True Evil seizes you by the throat and demands you choose between it and another, slightly lesser, Evil.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
You will dance to the tune they play. Or you will take leave of the dance-floor. Because the orchestra's podium is too high for you to climb up there and tell the musicians to play some other tune. Realise that at last. If you think another solution is possible, you are making a mistake. You mistake the stars reflected in the surface of the lake at night for the heavens
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
Il male è male, Stregobor. Minore, maggiore, medio, è sempre lo stesso, le proporzioni sono convenzionali, i limiti cancellati. Non sono un santo eremita, non ho fatto solo del bene in vita mia. Ma, se devo scegliere tra un male e un altro, preferisco non scegliere affatto.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
Men om jag ska välja mellan två onda ting, då föredrar jag att inte välja alls.
~ Andrzej Sapkowski
