“One cannot step in the same river twice, and home is not home when you return, for you are not yourself. The man you were yesterday died yesterday, and is only a piece of the man of today, as you will be tomorrow.”
― Christopher Ruocchio, Ashes of Man

“Home isn't where you're from, it's where you find light when all grows dark.”
― Pierce Brown, Golden Son

“Nothing endures, nor lasts forever. Not stone, not empires, not life itself. Even the stars will one day burn down—as I have seen and know perhaps better than any other man. Even the darkness that comes after all will one day pass away to new light. This record, too, and this warm scribe—my hand—perhaps, will fade. The stones here on Colchis shall fall into the sea, and the sea dissolve to foam. The stars shall burn the worlds to ash, and cool themselves to cinders. All things fade. Fall. Shatter.”
― Christopher Ruocchio, Ashes of Man

“There is pain always, and ugliness, but the light and beauty of the world shine always above and beyond the powers of darkness to destroy.”
― Christopher Ruocchio, Kingdoms of Death
