“You must understand, no matter what anyone tells you, that you are free. In this moment you may do whatever you choose. No one can stop you. They can choose how to react to your choice, but they cannot stop the choice itself. This is freedom, understand? A knife in your hand. And you may do with it as you please.” FreedomTain Shir248 Book:The Monster Baru Cormorant Source: The Monster Baru Cormorant
“If anyone ever tells you that they have no choice but to compromise, remember this. They are afraid.” Tain Shir Book:The Monster Baru Cormorant Source: The Monster Baru Cormorant
“Who says you have a duty to a nation? Who says you cannot reject an unjust duty? Who says you can decide which evil is small enough to tolerate, and which is too great to allow? Who says you should allow anyone to hold such power over you, the power to use your work for purposes you do not understand?” Tain Shir457 Book:The Monster Baru Cormorant Source: The Monster Baru Cormorant
