Robert Jordan Quote

Almost everyone stopped when he did, but Enaila and Jalani exchanged glances and kept on right past him toward the garden. He raised his voice a fraction and hardened it considerably more. The Maidens here will come with me. Anyone who wants to put on a dress and discuss matchmaking can stay behind...................................Bashere motioned, and one of the younger Saldaeans loped ahead in that rolling stride of a man more used to a saddle. A man must know when to retreat from a woman, Bashere said to the air, but a wise man knows that sometimes he must stand and face her.Young men, Bael said indulgently. A young man chases shadows and runs from moonlight, and in the end he stabs himself in the foot with his own spear. Some of the other Aiel chuckled, Maidens and Knife Hands alike. The older ones did.Irritated, Rand looked over his shoulder again. Neither of you would look well in a dress. Surprisingly, the Maidens and Knife Hands laughed again, more loudly. Maybe he was getting a grip on Aiel humor.
