mean winning justice
Life is nothing in itself. It’s a place marker that proves who’s winning, and we are the winners. We are always the winners. There is nothing but the winning. Even winning means nothing. We win because it’s an insult to lose. The ends don’t justify the means. The means don’t justify the ends. There is no one to justify to. There is no justice.” ~ Durzo Blint
armor remember
Put on some armor. Just remember what's armor and what's you, so when it's time to take it off, you can.
powerful stupid kind
..because the only kind of love I have to offer is stupid and blind and so deep and powerful that I feel like I'm cracking just to hold it in.
player worry trying
If you worry about what everyone is trying to do, you become a spectator and not a player.
men sin crime
Do you know what punishments I've endured for my crimes, my sins? None. I am proof of the absurdity of men's most treasured abstractions. A just universe wouldn't tolerate my existence.
dream shadow abiding
Why is it, my shadow-striding friend, that we don't fear dreams? We lose consciousness, lose control, things happen with no apparent logic and abiding by no apparent rules.... We don't fear dreams, but we do fear madness, and death terrifies us.
sacrifice winning guarantees-that
There's no guarantee that justice will win out or that a noble sacrifice will make any difference. But when it does, there's something that still swells my chest. There's magic in that.... It tells me that's the way things are supposed to be.
real simple broken
Let me make this real simple. You will not break me. The hole will not break me. I will not break. I will not be broken.
embarrassment muscles huge
If embarrassment were a muscle, I'd be huge.
beautiful girl beautiful-girl
one doesn't interrupt a beautiful girl unless one is going to be funny.
love-is weakness triumph
Love is a fragile, corruptible thing. And yet I have seen it evince a curious strength. It is beyond any comprehension Love is a weakness that once in a great while triumphs over strength.
body saws fool
Her nudity is her armor. It blinded the drooling fools. They couldn't see anything else while they saw her body.
men giving problem
The God gives simpler problems to lesser men.
