The more so considering this is a central allocation question for the entire economy?”

“Have I lost this battle?
Am I still a worthy warrior,
even though it seems like a never-ending war?
The war is between my mind
and the truth of what I am.
It’s a one-sided war that can not be won
until I lay down my weapons and realise
that we are on the same side.
My war is in my head,
and as long as the fighting is going on,
there will be no peace.
Truth is my ally.
Truth is within me.
Truth is me.
I am truth,
I’m silence,
I’m the silent warrior for peace.”

“Scraps. Little devices. Lesser arts. Not nearly what you would if I were your apprentice sworn in blood, I know. I am no fool,” she said angrily. As if he didn’t know that. As if she needed to convince him she was deadly. “I have learned much about the Sith. Their lineage and their greatness.”

“Have I then no work to work in this great matter of my pardon? None. What work canst thou work? What work of thine can buy forgiveness or make thee fit for the Divine favour? What work has God bidden thee work in order to obtain salvation? None. His Word is very plain and easy to be understood, "To him that worketh not, but believeth in Him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness" (Rom. 4:5).
