Tool Quotes

“Putting on the collar is taking charge of unexpected situations. Keeping humans from taking control from me. To tell hunters that I'm not prey. Not a trophy by wearing the collar. I looked at the circlet again. Looking deeper, I see not subjugation, but a tool of power to control my fate in the world of man that symbolizes my ownership over both my nature spirit and wolf-self.”

“There exists a limit to the force even the most powerful may apply without destroying themselves. Judging this limit is the true artistry of government. Misuse of power is the fatal sin. The law cannot be a tool of vengeance, never a hostage, nor a fortification against the martyrs it has created. You cannot threaten any individual and escape the consequences.”

“An iPhone can be a very useful tool; it can do real good. But it’s hard. In the same way that it’s difficult to be a good person, it’s hard. With it, you are easily susceptible to distraction, temptation, a spectrum of major and minor sins. They’re mostly the same ones easily tied up with the internet in general—lust, sloth, envy, pride—but on a mobile device they’re worse, more of an affront to God, because they tend to be committed at the expense of actual interaction with the world—the world He made, for you and for all.”

“They all call me "Excuse me," even though my nametag clearly says "Jordan." It's like people don't actually exist while they're working. Workers are just tools who aren't supposed to have feelings or personalities. You don't become human until your shift is over. Until then, we're all just zombies. We're dead to the world: infected people who need to be avoided, unless, of course, someone needs to know where the paintbrushes are located.”

“Power as a beneficial tool for aspiring achievers is primarily made up into four folds; 1. Power to control emotions, 2. Power to make right decisions, 3. Power to stand against depression, 4. Power to excel in innovations.”

“I started to write to Ted to explain my feelings, and then - for the very first time - I truly realized that he could not, would not, understand or empathize or even care what my situation was. I had been meant to serve a purpose in his life; I had been the designated Bundy PR person - and I had failed to produce.”

“To live for the hope of something isn’t really living at all, and so, like a child putting away its toys and picking up a tool, he marched to Lyca’s bathroom, to shower off the stench of failure, soap up the death of hope, then wash away the ashes of his love for Daphne.”

“Hands can cook, hands can create, hands can kill. There is no better tool than our hands.”

“A good swordsman is more important than a good sword.”

“Despite my intellectual attempts to grasp it, I remain confounded beyond all repair to understand how God believes in us enough to choose us as the vehicles by which to destroy the darkness in the world that we, of our own accord brought into it. And while I may never understand all of it, it is my hope that I love God with enough passion and that I hate the darkness with enough ferocity to stand up and be that vehicle.”
