What are the motifs in The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan?

The motif of destiny is evident throughout the novel. The Pattern weaves lives as threads, binding all lives together and creating the Lace of an Age. Ta'veren are central figures in the Pattern, affecting lives around them. They can either choose their own destinies, altering the Pattern accordingly or they are chosen by the Pattern and forced into a certain path, their destinies preordained. Rand, Mat and Perrin are all ta'veren. Moiraine brings the three to the Eye of the World, hoping the resulting change in the Pattern will envelop all lives including the Dark One himself, perhaps thwarting his plans to escape imprisonment.
