“You fall, you rise, you continue on, refusing to believe your failures until once more they strike you down. You return, slowly diminishing, but unwilling to stop, unwilling to succumb. You are your race, Lucius. You are humanity and as with the rest of your kind, I delight in your dance, all the way to its end.” HumanityCorruptionDefianceHumanity QuotesWarhammer 40000Chaos Space MarinesDefiantDefiance Quotes Book:Lucius: The Faultless Blade Source: Lucius: The Faultless Blade
“Sometimes, I consider whether the Emperor hated the Primarchs the way Fulgrim hates us." "Speak for yourself. Our father does not hate us." "Of course he does. From afar, you feel the lie of his warmth, the false affection you all so urgently crave. And he gives it to you but always from pity. You are his champion, yet still you cannot see it. You will never be as close to him as I was. You never see the way he really looks at us. Never seeing the wonders we wrought, only the limitations. Not our triumphs, just our flaws. He hates us, Lucius, because to Fulgrim, we are not his sons. We are a mirror, holding up an image before him that he can never do anything other than hate. We are his own failure made manifest, the miscarriage that comes about when a father tries to mould his children into something better than himself.” AmbitionReflectionHatredDisappointmentWarhammer 40kWarhammer 40000Chaos Space Marines Book:Lucius: The Faultless Blade Source: Lucius: The Faultless Blade
“All beings experience hunger, that persistent reminder of mortality. The blooming hollow inside all, which affirms that only by taking from without and devouring within can we extend our coil. Hunger is universal for those who are destined to die. As they feed, they pay the incremental bribes that forestall its coming.” HungerMortalityWarhammer 40kWarhammer 40000Hunger QuotesDevourMortality QuotesMortality Awareness Book:Lucius: The Faultless Blade Source: Lucius: The Faultless Blade
