There are two kinds of people in this world, son. Those who save lives, and those who take lives. And what of those who protect and defend? Those who save lives by taking lives? That's like trying to stop a storm by blowing harder. Ridiculous. You can't protect by killing.

Those who take lightly promises they make to those they love are people who find little lasting satisfaction in life. This is not an easy time in which to live. That does not mean that it has to be a difficult time to love, but it does mean that you will find unusual stresses upon your lives and your relationship.

You're a very difficult person to manipulate, you know. Nonsense, he said. You just have to promise me that I won't have to do a thing, and then I'll do anything you want. Anything? Anything that doesn't require doing anything. That's nothing, then. Is it? Yes. Well, that's something.

You know, I was a nerdy kid going through high school, and then I got to college and that all vanished. I mean, a lot of my good friends - when we were in high school, we would never have been able to hang out together because we were in such different cliques or whatever. Now, who cares?

I don't have much time for stories, Vin said. Seems that fewer and fewer people do, these days. A canopy kept off the ash, but he seemed unconcerned about the mists. It makes me wonder what is so alluring about the real world that gives them all such a fetish for it. It's not a very nice place these days.
