“The less you say, the more weight your words will carry.
Don’t argue. Never deign to deny. Meet insults with laughter.
“You didn’t laugh at the Fjerdan captain,” I observed.
“That wasn’t an insult. It was a challenge,” he said. “Know the difference.”
Weakness is a guise. Wear it when they need to know you’re human, but never when you feel it.

Get them to follow the little orders, and they’ll follow the big ones.
It’s okay to flout expectations, but never disappoint them.”

“You love her.”
No, he did not love her. The word for what he felt for Zafira bint Iskandar did not yet exist.”
