No matter how much glory he wins on the battlefield, that cannot erase the fact that he is no better than a rabid wolf who will turn on his friends and family as soon as his foes.
Christopher Paolini

Christopher Paolini
To while away the day contemplating evils that might have been is to poison the happiness we already have.
