“Don’t try to fix the past, dear one—it can’t be done.”
― Terry Goodkind, Faith Of The Fallen

“Every person's life is theirs by right. An individual's life can and must belong only to himself, not to any society or community, or he is then but a slave. No one can deny another person their right to life nor seize by force what is produced by someone else, because that is stealing their means to sustain their life. It is treason against mankind to hold a knife to a man's throat and dictate how he must live his life. No society can be more important than individuals who compose it, or else you ascribe supreme importance, not to man, but any notion that strikes the fancy of that society, at a never-ending cost of lives. Reason and reality are the only means to just laws; mindless wishes, if given sovereignty, becomes deadly masters.”
― Terry Goodkind, Faith of the Fallen

“Enough. Silence.
This charade is over. I cannot enjoy a battle of wits if you neglect to bring any with you to the contest.

“Ideals are just a bunch of raving without power to back them up, and power is just kind of a vacant void without ideals to back it up, isn’t it?”
― Fuse, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime (Light Novel), Vol. 6
