besides, how can you cheat a cheater?
warrior fighting past
All great fighting is the same, Eragon, even as all great warriors are the same. Past a certain point, it does not matter whether you wield a sword, a claw, a tooth or a tail. It is true, you must be capable with your weapon, but anyone with the time, and the inclination can acquire technical proficiency. To achieve greatness, though, that requires artistry. That requires imagination and thoughtfulness, and it is those qualities that the best warriors share, even if, on the surface, they appear completely different.

Too many problems in this world are caused by men with noble dispositions and clouded minds.
battle reeds triumphant
He who stands like a pilar dies in battle. He who bends like a reed is triumphant!
past done repent
I refuse to repent, and I won't plague myself over what is done and past
past may know-how
Respect the past; you never know how it may affect you.
enlightenment eragon persons
A person must earn enlightenment, Eragon. It is not handed down to you by others, regardless of how revered they be.
ocean blood wade
For my love, I will wade through an ocean of blood, even if it destroys me
dark trying scare
Having no other recourse, Roran resorted to the unexpected: he stuck his head and neck out and shouted, "BAH!" just as he would if he were trying to scare someone in a dark hallway...
