“Wasn't that what most of the bad stuff in the world was about, staying when you knew damned well you should go, pushing on when you knew you should cut and run?

“But I follow my gut, and my gut says we meet this one head-on with smiles on our faces. Look," said Locke, "the more we do this, the more I learn about what I think Chains was really training us for. And this is it. He wasn't training us for a calm and orderly world where we could pick and choose when we needed to be clever. He was training us for a situation that was fucked up on all sides. Well, we're in it, and I say we're equal to it. I don't need to be reminded that we are up to our heads in dark water. I just want you boys to remember that we're the gods-damned sharks.”
