The academic honors, Miles had amassed by sheer brute work. But the war games, outwitting his opponents, staying one step ahead —a necessity, true, he had no margin for error — the war games had been an unholy joy. War had been no game here once, not so long ago. It might be so again. What you did best, that was what was wanted from you. God seemed to be lined up with the Emperor on that point, at least, if no other.

When the Emperor is no longer the sole symbol of Barrayar in Miles' hearts of hearts....its' the people of Barrayar who Miles will serve. The people of the Vorkosigan Surleau?

The fundamental principle was clear; the spirit was to be preferred
over the letter, truth over technicalities. Precedent was held subordinate to the judgment of the man on the spot. Alas, the man on the spot was himself. There was no refuge for him in automated rules, no hiding behind the law says as if the law were some living overlord with a real Voice. The only voice here was his own.

Ordinary people need extraordinary examples. So they can
say to themselves, well, if he can do that, I can surely do this. No excuses.
