”Cowards live for the sake of living, but for heroes, life is a weapon, a thing to be spent, a gift to be given to the weak and the lost and the weary, even to the foolish and the cowardly.”

”To love is to be selfless. To be selfless is to be fearless. To be fearless is to strip your enemies of their greatest weapon. Even if they break our bodies and drain our blood, we are unvanquished. Our goal was never to live; our goal is to love. It is the goal of all truly noble men and women. Give all that can be given. Give even your life itself.”

”The blame may not be yours, but you held the spark that set the flame. It is young and growing. Maybe, maybe it may still be quenched, so long as the Almighty bathed us in courage and luck and we do not rest and we do not tire and we do not listen to our own pain.”

Oh. I love this quote so much. @Rebecca: Also, this type of HIGHLY quotable writing/prose DOES remind me of Sarah KL Wilson's. So I think you're onto something there... I should probably read more of ND Wilson too xD
