Quotes by David Welch  (?)

“Perhaps, instead of teaching children that pride goeth before a fall, and subtly encouraging them not to try, we should be teaching them instead how to get back up from that fall, and see the shortcomings their pride blinded them to.”
David Welch, Wrath of the Hegemons

“when you know a person well enough, you stop noticing the physical details, the stuff you’d notice the first time you saw somebody. You just start seeing them, the person they are,”
David Welch, Wrath of the Hegemons

“If history has taught me anything, it’s that there is no action so depraved that a human mind can’t rationalize it into banality. And once that’s happened, it’s only a small step to celebrate the evil act as if it’s somehow moral and empowering.”
David Welch, Wrath of the Hegemons
