“I solemnly swear to do my best
Every day, And in all that I do,
To be brave and strong,
To be truthful and compassionate,
To be interesting and interested,
To respect nature,
To pay attention and question
The world around me,
To think of others first,
To ALWAYS help and protect my friends
Then there's a line about God or whatever
And to make the world a better place
For Lumberjane scouts
And for everyone else.”
― Lumberjanes, Vol. 1: Beware the Kitten Holy

"I said I wanted to play VIDEO games."
"Video games are a waste of time."

Why do you even have these? No one lives here but you!"
"I used to have some henchmen. Game night was a big hit."
"Henchmen? What happened to them?"
"I can't work with mercenaries. It's impossible to build trust when they only care about their paychecks. "
"Oooh. Let me guess. The Institution paid them off?"
"I don't want to talk about it.”

“Here's what they don't tell you about climbing mountains: almost everyone who dies, dies on the way down. The summit, as much as you want it, is only the halfway point. And night will be here soon, and there will be no way to go but down, and you will be so tired.
Will you fall in plain sight, a monument to those who come after you?
Will you vanish into the darkest depths, never to be seen again?”
