Nothing of real worth can ever be bought. Love, friendship, honour, valour, respect. All these things have to be earned.

There are times, Sember, when I could believe your mother had a secret lover. Looking at you makes me wonder if it was one of my goats.

A cynic by experience, a romantic by inclination and now a hero by necessity.

Evil lives in a pit. If you want to fight it – you must climb down in the slime to do so.

By nature of definition only the coward is capable of the highest heroism

Heroes are people who face down their fears. It is that simple. A child afraid of the dark who one day blows out the candle; a women terrified of the pain of childbirth who says, 'It is time to become a mother'. Heroism does not always live on the battlefield.

Never violate a woman, nor harm a child. Do not lie, cheat or steal. These things are for lesser men. Protect the weak against the evil strong. And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the persuit of evil.
