Quotes
"The First Lieutenant's rumbling voice was always a surprise, coming from a slight man who stood barely higher than Gawyn's shoulder. Even so, had times been different, Rajar surely would have been a Warder by this time." (Gawyn; Crossroads of Twilight, Prologue)
"The White Tower's methods are its own, Lord Gawyn and so are its motives. It isn't for us to question. What good is a Warder who questions the orders of his Aes Sedai? A good way to get you both killed, that is" (The Gathering Storm, Chapter 4).
"they'd sooner catch Sleete...but make certain to send a messenger for me when you get back into camp. I'll stay up half the night worrying of you don't return" (To Gawyn, The Gathering Storm, Chapter 13).
