“You see, while Malk was a man to reckon with, fear wasn't what muzzled me. It was shame. No one can still your tongue like somebody who knew you at your worst. Of course, I'm not confident I was worse when I was younger. I may be the worst I ever was now, ethically speaking, but I know now how not to look so bad. We don't usually know that when we're young, so our worst traits are on full display.”

“Monarchy is a bad system because, no matter how smart you are, you can still squirt a moron out of your plumbing.
