❝
You cannot change what you are, only what you do.
❞
❝You speak of destiny as if it was fixed. ❞
❝We are all subject to the fates. But we must act as if we are not, or die of despair.
❞
❝Human beings can’t see anything without wanting to destroy it. That’s original sin.
❞
❝Death is going to die.
❞
❝All good things pass away.
❞
❝Being a practiced liar doesn’t mean you have a powerful imagination.
❞
❝Lonely? I don’t know.
❞
❝They tell me this is cold. I don’t know what cold is, because I don’t freeze.
❞
❝We feel cold, but we don’t mind it, because we will not come to harm.
❞
❝When you live for many hundreds of years, you know that every opportunity will come again.
❞
❝If there is war to be fought, we don’t consider cost one of the factors in deciding whether or not it is right to fight.
❞
❝One moment several things are possible, the next moment only one happens, and the rest don’t exist.
❞
❝And till they learn to be satisfied with what they are, they’re going to be fretful about it. ❞
❝Men and women are moved by tides much fiercer than you can imagine.
❞
❝Men pass in front of our eyes like butterflies, creatures of a brief season.
❞
❝The stars are alive, child! Did you know that?
❞
❝The universe is full of intentions, you know. Everything happens for a purpose. ❞
❝There’s been terrible things we seen, en’t there?
❞
❝I think I’d rather not know what’s in the future.
❞
❝I bet you could catch bullets. ❞
❝Make a noise in there and I won’t help you. You’re on your own.
❞
❝You might not have more courage, but you should be ashamed to show less.
❞
❝But it was too good a word to waste, and that’s why the particles became known as Dust.
❞
❝I wish I could answer your question.
❞
❝Where’s my free will, if you please?
❞
❝All that happens is a little cut, and then everything’s peaceful. Forever!
❞
❝The wave function of this situation is going to collapse quite soon.
❞
❝ If we wrapped up against the cold, we wouldn’t feel other things, like the bright tingle of the stars. ❞
❝ There’s a warm passion behind what you say. ❞
❝ War is the sea I swim in and the air I breathe. ❞
❝You don’t really want to stand around at the cocktail party being all sweet and pretty. ❞
❝She’s just making a pet out of you. ❞
❝
Hope holds you fast like an anchor so you don’t give way.
❞
❝No, no, that’s the saddest thing: she will be the betrayer, and the experience will be terrible. ❞
❝I like it here. I want to stay here forever.
❞
❝Deceptive, that’s what you are child. ❞
❝When you’re young, you do think that things last forever. Unfortunately, they don’t.
❞
❝Don’t question me; just do as I tell you.
❞
❝ Don’t you wish for a choice once in a while? ❞❝
You’re supposed to know about conscience, aren’t you?
❞
❝
Don’t! Please! Stop hurting us!
❞
❝
Don’t you dare laugh! I’ll tear your lungs out if you laugh at him!
❞
❝
Who’s took it from him? Where’s it gone?
❞
❝
Why do they do it? ❞
