In war, our elders may give the orders...but it is the young who have to fight.
T. H. White
Why can't you harness Might so that it works for Right? I know it sounds nonsense, but, I mean, you can't just say there is no such thing. The Might is there, in the bad half of people, and you can't neglect it. You can't cut it out but you might be able to direct it, if you see what I mean, so that it was useful instead of bad.
T. H. White
They made me see that the world was beautiful if you were beautiful, and that you couldn't get unless you gave. And you had to give without wanting to get.

Those who lived by the sword were forced to die by it.
T. H. White
But they woke him with words, their cruel bright weapons.
T. H. White
It is a pity that there are no big creatures to prey on humanity. If there were enough dragons and rocs, perhaps mankind would turn its might against them. Unfortunately man is preyed upon by microbes, which are too small to be appreciated.
T. H. White
The Destiny of Man is to unite, not to divide. If you keep on dividing you end up as a collection of monkeys throwing nuts at each other out of separate trees.
T. H. White
Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.
T. H. White
We cannot build the future by avenging the past.
T. H. White
I think I ought to have some eddication,said the Wart, I can't think of anything to do.
T. H. White
Unfortunately we have tried to establish Right by Might, and you can 't do that.

Dogs, like very small children, are quite mad.
