“What about guiro thanat?”

My brow furrows. I must have said that in front of him at some point. “Sytrecian. It’s more of an insult. The rough translation is someone who could ‘brighten a room with their absence, or dazzle it with their corpse.’ ” I smile slightly. I’ve always liked that one.

“All that in two words?”

“Apparently so.”

“That's the problem with people, though, isn't it? They always think that other people are the problem... If all you're trying to do is change who's in control, they you don't really want to change anything.”
James Islington, The Will of the Many

“The oldest argument for doing something wrong is that everyone is doing it. To dismantle what they have built would have required the agreement of every man who had spent his life building it," agrees my father softly. "It would have required them to give up all they have striven their entire lives to gain. And they would have needed to do it, largely, for the benefit of those at whose expense it originally came.”
James Islington, The Strength of the Few

“But a broken blade can still cut, Diago.”
James Islington, The Will of the Many
