“A sixth I know, if harm one seeks
With a sapling's roots to send me;
The hero himself who wreaks his hate
Shall taste the ill ere I.”
~Hávamál 152, Bellows
“Þat kann ek it sétta:
ef mik særir þegn á vrótum hrás viðar,
ok þann hal er mik heifta kveðr,
þann eta mein heldr en mik.”
This is referenced in Grettir’s saga; Thurid curses Grettir by carving runes on the root of a fallen tree, reddening them with blood, and pushing it out to sea towards the island of Drangey. Grettir attempts to cut the tree for firewood, but his axe glances off and cuts deep into his leg.

There was a farmer who's horse runs off one day. Neighbors in the village come by and say "this is terrible! what misfortune has found you!"
The farmer says "May be."
In the following days the horse returns leading two more wild horses back with it.
The neighbors hear and come back and say, "This is amazing, what a turn of luck!"
The farmer replies, "May be."
In the following days the farmer's son falls off a horse and breaks his leg.
The neighbors come again to visit and offer condolences, "Poor young man, just when planting time has begun. What a calamity!"
The farmer shrugs and says, "May be."
The next day conscription officers for the army come to the village and discover the young man's broken leg and he's passed over.
The neighbors come again, "What luck of timing, fortune smiles on your family!"
The farmer again replies, "May be."

To think you know how our universe began is to take the word of people who never learnt how to think.

I'd like to offer my deepest condolences to all of the women around the world who so desperately crave me. Whilst you carry this great burden, live in the knowledge that I respect and notice your pain. Remember, you're only human, after all.
