born to bear the world

"Catch the fire burning out your soul. Just make it die or you will turn it all to ashes and blood."

"I believe I am capable of aiming my burning soul appropriately."

“no matter what, you keep finding something to fight for.”

“ Bad things should happen to bad people. "  ” Rich tits always try for more than they deserve “ " Whatever the truth is, that belief gives you power. ” “ Can’t you see why I want nothing to do with that life? ” “ I have seen the throne of the gods, and it was empty. ” “ I will not suffer even an unknowing rival. You must die! ” “ Tell me… where is your Maker now? Call him, call down his wrath upon me! You cannot. For he does not exist! ” “ Common ground is the start of all negotiations. ” “ Though darkness closes, I am shielded by flame. ” “ It spoke of judgement instead of acceptance. It should encourage the good in everyone, rather than rebuke us for our sins. No one should be turned away from our doors. No one is without worth. Whoever you are, whatever your mistakes, you are loved. Unconditionally. ” “ If we’re going to change it, why not change the whole thing? ” “ I’ve known mages. Some of them were better people than me. And yet I’m free and they’re not. It’s not right. ” “ Sometimes you have to figure out for yourself what the pledge to protect others really means. ” “ You are who you choose to follow. ” “ Took me years to understand what he meant. ” “ But wars are won by men. ” “ You inspire them. ” “ Build on that foundation, and you will have an army that makes nations tremble. ” “ We all need to believe there are such men in the world. ” “ I needed to believe I could be one of them. ” “ We could make the world better. ” “ It’s just easier to shut our eyes. ” “ It’s not right… to want to do good, to be good, and have that turned against you. ” “ At this moment, you are the only threat I see. ” “ How seldom does reality match the ideal. ” “ We must do so with open hearts and open hands. ” “ I see what must be done, and I do it! I see no point in running around in circles like a dog chasing its tail. ” “ At some point, power becomes its own master. ” “ They will stand in the fire and complain that it is hot. "  " I want to help. ” “ I used to be like you. I’m not anymore. You shouldn’t be either. ” “ They forgot about him. ” “ I came through to help… and I couldn’t. ” “ Isn’t it wonderful? ” “ Living a lie… it festers inside you, like poison. You have to fight for what’s in your heart. ” “ It’s my duty to stand with you. ” “ I’m here to set things right. Also? To look dashing. That part’s less difficult. ” “ We’re a lot more fragile than we’d like to believe. ” “ Life isn’t about personal freedom. ” “ People don’t always tell the truth when you’re polite. ” “ We pick the ones willing to make the hard decisions… and live with the consequences. ” “ Every great war has its heroes. I’m just curious what kind you’ll be. ” “ No real god need prove himself. Anyone who tries is mad or lying. ” “ I would not trade it for anything. ” “ I hope there’s a damn good punchline coming. ” “ The truly great ones can keep their distance. They don’t get attached to their people. ” “ I always wind up babysitting my informants and worrying about their families. ” “  Heroes are everywhere. I’ve seen that.” “ That’s beyond heroes. We’re going to need a miracle. ” “ For those who value survival, sentimentality is not an option. ” “ I’m never truly out of my element. ”
