The Thing cannot be described - there is no language for such abysms of shrieking and immemorial lunacy, such eldritch contradictions of all matter, force, and cosmic order. A mountain walked or stumbled.
If I say that my somewhat extravagant imagination yielded simultaneous pictures of an octopus, a dragon, and a human caricature, I shall not be unfaithful to the spirit of the thing. A pulpy, tentacled head surmounted a grotesque and scaly body with rudimentary wings; but it was the general outline of the whole which made it most shockingly frightful. ~ H.P. Lovecraft
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by H.P. Lovecraft
Jealousy has a way of clouding logic. ~ Alpha Four
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Alpha Four
I wish we had a sign that this flaming dragon is part of an attack or something. Those dung heaps might think it's just one of their own monsters enjoying the sunrise. ~ Tamora Pierce
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Tamora Pierce
I think you're my hero,' she said. Only half-kidding.
He stared at her, the picture of incredulity. 'Most people,' he said, 'think I am a very bad man.'
She studied his eyes to try to find out if that bothered him. He didn't seem bothered by them. He seemed discomfited by her. 'Well,' she said at last, 'maybe you're a very good dragon. ~ Thea Harrison
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Thea Harrison
This is surely the most significant of the elements that Tolkien brought to fantasy ... his arranged marriage between the Elder Edda and "The Wind in the Willows"
big Icelandic romance and small-scale, cozy English children's book. The story told by "The Lord of the Rings" is essentially what would happen if Mole and Ratty got drafted into the Nibelungenlied. ~ Adam Gopnik

Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Dan Bergstein
GO FOR HIS EYES! OR BITE HIM ON THE NOSE! DRAGON NOSES ARE VERY SENSITIVE!
Oh, very helpful, Camicazi, very helpful ... thought Hiccup. What if he doesn't obligingly hold me up to his nose? What if the only part I get close to is the TEETH? ~ Cressida Cowell
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Cressida Cowell
There might be a dragon with five legs in my house, but no one has ever seen it. ~ Arthur Miller
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Arthur Miller
What did you do for a friend who had been through what she had?"

"You're doing it. She needs support and a listening ear. Give her that and the ragged edges will start to heal. The other part, though ... that I'm not sure about. ~ Sarah K.L. Wilson
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Sarah K.L. Wilson
It is said, for example, that dragons can sometimes have seven heads. This is sheer nonsense. A dragon can have only one head, for the simple reason that having two leads to disagreements and violent quarrels; the polyhydroids, as the scholars call them, died out as a result of internal feuds. Stubborn and headstrong by nature, dragons cannot tolerate opposition, therefore two heads in one body will always bring about a swift death: each head, purely to spite the other, refuses to eat, then maliciously holds its breath - with the usual consequences. It was this phenomenon which Euphorius Cloy exploited when he invented the anticapita cannon. A small auxiliary electron head is discharged into the dragon's body. This immediately gives rise to unreconcilable differences of opinion and the dragon is immobilized by the ensuing deadlock. Often it will stand there, stiff as a board, for a day, a week, even a month; sometimes a year goes by before the beast will collapse, exhausted. Then you can do with it what you will. ~ Stanisław Lem
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Stanisław Lem
By the time I got to high school, I had learned to be more cautious about revealing my dreams. I was reading - and therefore writing - adventure stories. This was before I'd read Isak Dinesen and Mikhail Bulgakov, before Ernest Hemingway and T. Coraghessan Boyle, before I'd read something and really felt it, when writing was still just a compulsion, and my teen-age brain was only bordering on sentience. I filled pages of white space with swashbuckling, rapier-wielding, sidekick-sacrificing, dragon-baiting romance.
(from 'High-School Confidential' in the The New Yorker.) ~ Tea Obreht
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Tea Obreht
Sometimes, when we feel the greatest need to be alone, it's the moment we should most welcome the company of others. ~ James Maxey
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by James Maxey
We celebrate, we create, as citizens of Shatter. We hold a bond of unending happiness. This planet, at the edge of the galaxy, is our testament to life.
Our dragons, in the sky, came from the stars. They brought many new things to explore.
From the Blessings of the Father Dragon, a poem ~ L'Poni Baldwin
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by L'Poni Baldwin
It is a condition of monsters that they do not perceive themselves as such. The dragon, you know, hunkered in the village devouring maidens, heard the townsfolk cry 'Monster!' and looked behind him. ~ Laini Taylor
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Laini Taylor
Your beautiful, majestic, not to mention female dragon is named Fred? ~ Mari Mancusi
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Mari Mancusi
He was there,keeping watch over her, which meant he expected something to happen.What? That she would be so foolish as to try to escape? Not for a moment did she believe he would seek to trap her like that. No,he was waiting for someone else,the real villain who had sought to harm them both.
Waiting and hoping to lure him out by the simple expediency of using her as...bait.
That husband of hers-that dear, darling husband of hers-was going to have some serious apologizing to do when this was over.
Fearing that the sheer expanse of her smile would give the plan away, Rycca pulled a corner of a blanket up over her face. A short time later, she drifted off to sleep again,secure in the knowledge that she lay under the watchful eye of the Dragon. ~ Josie Litton
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Josie Litton
The Fool in the Tarot deck frequently depicted a boy with a dog at his heels, staring at the sky while he walked blithely off a cliff, burdened only by a bundle on a stick. The diabolist had admitted a relationship to the card.

No single detail was quite right, but much as something might appear similar if one were to unfocus their vision…

The young diabolist walked with the sparrow at his shoulder, eyes on the windows without looking through the windows, walking forward as if he were afraid to stop. His burden here was the gas containers.

No, he was burdened not just by the gas containers, but by some notion of responsibility.

A man, when facing death, aspires to finish what he started.

What had the custodian of the Thorburn estate started? What drove him?

She knew he sought to do good and to vanquish evil, and she could surmise that both good acts and the existence of evil had touched him deeply.

The Fool card was akin to the ace. Depending on the game being played, it was often the lowest card or the highest. Valueless or highly valued. Powerless or powerful.

It all depended on context. He sought to kill the demon, and he would either catastrophically fail or succeed.

This Fool sought to slay the metaphorical dragon. He felt his own mortality, which was quite possibly her fault, in part, and now he rushed to finish the task he'd set for himself. To better the world.

Wildbow
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Wildbow
Dany kissed him lightly on the cheek. It heartened her to see him smile. I must be strong for him as well, she thought grimly. A knight he may be, but I am the blood of the dragon. ~ George R R Martin
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by George R R Martin
Women think they can act like evil monsters from hell and be loved like a princess. It's as if the dragon and the witch was in them and not in the world. ~ Robin Sacredfire
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Robin Sacredfire
Browns seek knowledge, Blues meddle in causes, and Whites consider the questions of truth with implacable logic. We all do some of it all, of course. But to be Green means to stand ready. In the Trolloc Wars, we were often called the Battle Ajah. All Aes Sedai helped where and when they could, but the Green Ajah alone was always with the armies, in almost every battle. We were the counter to the dreadlords. The Battle Ajah. And now we stand ready, for the Trollocs to come south again, for Tarmon Gai'don. the Last Battle. We will be there. That is what it means to be Green. -Alanna ~ Robert Jordan
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Robert Jordan
That night she dreamed about the King again.
She stood in a riverside meadow between greenwood and castle. Overhead the sun shone gilt in a sky like powdered lapis and struck golden sparks from the King's blood-red dragon banner. ~ Suzannah Rowntree
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Suzannah Rowntree
Eragon went to see the dragon for the first time since it had spoken to him. He approached apprehensively, aware now that it was an equal.
"Eragon."
"Is that all you can say?" he snapped.
"Yes."
His eyes widened at the unexpected reply, and he sat down roughly.
Now it has a sense of humor. What next? ~ Christopher Paolini
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Christopher Paolini
I'm a dragon, and maybe if you're lucky, I'll be dragon my balls across your face later. ~ T.J. Klune
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by T.J. Klune
If I had known how good cooked meat tastes, I would have breathed my fire on all those pigs before I ate them. ~ Paula Quinn
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Paula Quinn
Her voice betrayed her. She could say so many things. She wanted to move to his side. To rub his weary forehead for him. To curl into him. To tell him about the dragon and how lonely thinking of it made her feel.

She wanted to run her finger along the fullness of his lower lip. To feel his smile against her own. And that was dangerous. ~ Kiersten White
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Kiersten White
Everyone wants the fairy tale, but don't forget there are dragons in those stories. ~ R. Queen
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by R. Queen
Jealousy is the dragon in paradise; the hell of heaven; and the most bitter of the emotions because associated with the sweetest. ~ Alfred Richard Orage
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Alfred Richard Orage
No doubt but there is none other beeste comparable to the mightie dragon in awesome power and majestie, and few so worthie of the diligent studies of wise men. -Gildas Magnus, Ars Draconis, 1465 ~ Dugald Steer
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Dugald Steer
A different kind of knight, one who'd chosen to protect the girl the world wanted to destroy; one born to slay dragons, but maybe to befriend them, too. ~ Leigh Bardugo
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Leigh Bardugo
I could see in the window the lake but also my own naked body...The dragon boat rowed toward me now, spearing my chest, moving through me, superimposed on the window, and it sifted through me like a ghost ship or through it. ~ Spencer Wise
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Spencer Wise
You've got to understand one of the tricks of the modern mind, a tendency that most people obey without noticing it. In the village or suburb outside there's an inn with the sign of St. George and the Dragon. Now suppose I went about telling everybody that this was only a corruption of King George and the Dragoon. Scores of people would believe it, without any inquiry, from a vague feeling that it's probable because it's prosaic. It turns something romantic and legendary into something recent and ordinary. And that somehow makes it sound rational, though it is unsupported by reason. Of course some people would have the sense to remember having seen St. George in old Italian pictures and French romances, but a good many wouldn't think about it at all. They would just swallow the skepticism because it was skepticism. Modern intelligence won't accept anything on authority. But it will accept anything without authority. That's exactly what has happened here. ~ G.K. Chesterton
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by G.K. Chesterton
Take it from a guy: If you're in love with somebody, you will swim the stream, you will climb the mountain, you will slay the dragon. You're going to get to her somehow, some way. ~ Phil McGraw
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Phil McGraw
Yes... hornbeam and dragon heartstring?" he shot at Krum, who nodded. "Rather thicker than one usually sees... quite rigid... ten and a quarter inches... Avis!"
The hornbeam wand let off a blast like a gun, and a number of small, twittering birds flew out of the end and through the open window into the watery sunlight. ~ J.K. Rowling
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by J.K. Rowling
She taught me how to ride the Dragon Coaster and what to do when you're flung into the mouth of whatever it is you think will kill you. Throw up your arms and laugh until you come out the other side. ~ Ian Morgan Cron
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Ian Morgan Cron
It twists my gut, and I feel pretty damn stupid for thinking I could bring a glock to a dragon fight. ~ Wolf Specter
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Wolf Specter
Watch this." Hayden
"Oh this is so weird." Hayden in Dragon form.Then he slapped his tail into the wall. "Ow! Have to watch that." He jerked it back and hit himself in the head with the barbed end. Instantly he returned to being human so he could rub his unintended injury. "Oh my God! Is that blood? Look at that! I'm bleeding." Hayden
"Oh my God! only my idiot twin could knock himself out with his own tail. How stupid are you?" Edena ~ Sherrilyn Kenyon
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Sherrilyn Kenyon
You're mine," Rhys whispered in her ear. "Your body is mine to tease and seduce. Tonight, you're all mine. ~ Donna Grant
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Donna Grant
I didn't have much notice, either, and you don't see me stomping about or trying to encourage people to faint or cry." Oh, she likely shouldn't have said that, either.
"Ye've a slightly better hold of yer temper than Coll does."
"A dragon would seem to have an easier temper than your brother," she blurted, then put a hand over her mouth. What was wrong with her tonight?
He snorted. "I cannae argue with that. ~ Suzanne Enoch
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Suzanne Enoch
We built 'Jade Empire,' then we built 'Mass Effect,' then we built 'Dragon Age.' With those last two, when you're dealing with two big ideas that are on their third iterations, you develop some strategies for managing your lore, or you drown! ~ Marc Laidlaw
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Marc Laidlaw
I will always be within reach if you need me, little one ... ~ A.R. Von
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by A.R. Von
Nasty little dragon. It wouldn't happen again. He was St George and he would slay the dragon. That was how it worked, wasn't it? He knew the story. He was a hero, a patron saint. He was England. This country was his. His people were marching towards him from all corners. He would take his throne. But first he had to destroy the dragon. He would butcher him like a piece of meat; a long pig, that's all he was: cutlets, chops, ribs and chitterlings. He would make sausages out of him, ha, because in the end he was nothing more than a side of pork ... No, smaller than that. He was just a lamb. A leg of lamb. Yes. He would slaughter the lamb. ~ Charlie Higson
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Charlie Higson
The first Dragon was enough to give you nightmares.
The second Dragon was enough to give your nightmares nightmares. ~ Cressida Cowell
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Cressida Cowell
Riding a Dragon is amazing, exhilarating, and murder on the thighs. ~ Bryan Fields
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Bryan Fields
Kylee laughed. "Nothing with you is normal. But speaking of abnormal, I saw this movie where these two girls liked the same boy, and one girl was a werewolf, and the other was a dragon, although she didn't know it yet, and it turned out the boy was a killer of, like, magical creatures, so both girls died and he took the head cheerleader to prom."
"That sounds like a stupid movie," I said.
"It actually was. But the boy had this shirt off a lot. I guess hunting magical creatures is great for stomach muscles. ~ Lindsey Leavitt
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Lindsey Leavitt
Eena!"
Recognizing Ian's voice, Eena turned to find him approaching her from behind. He was entirely clad in body armor and gauntlets, cradling an open-faced helmet in one arm. Painted on his chest plate was a flaming, gold sword. From his side hung a leather sheath, a golden hilt peeking from the top.
"I'm glad you're back. You are going to stay and watch us play, aren't you?" He looked hopeful she'd say yes.
Eena smiled brightly. "I didn't know you were talented enough to be on a dueling team. Nice sword," she teased.
Ian blushed a degree. "Thanks. They call us the Savage Warriors!" He rasped their team name in a semi-ferocious voice. "Jerin's team captain."
She laughed at the showy designation. "And who's your challenger today?"
"The Dragon Slayers - Derian's team."
Eena's face fell. "Derian is playing?" She groaned internally, knowing she should've guessed as much. This was starting to look like another setup. ~ Richelle E. Goodrich
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Richelle E. Goodrich
Everyone needs a superhero to champion them now and again, to rush to their aid when there's a fierce dragon approaching, a massive army attacking or a scary catacomb to navigate ~ Richard Templar
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by Richard Templar
You don't want to wake the dragon, do you? ~ George R R Martin
Nibelungenlied Dragon quotes by George R R Martin
In Sussex, if it's not the Devil that makes an appearance, then it's likely to be a dragon. ~ Michael O'Leary
