Miles is... Miles; close to a force of nature, climbing up out of his own pages and escaping subordination to any opinion of mine.

There was no limit to what one man might do, if he gave all, and held back nothing.

I am not a fate worse than death, dammit!

If you want to catch something, running after it isn't always the best way.

I'm sorry. I can love you. I can grieve for you, or with you. I can share your pain. But I cannot judge you.

I don’t duel, boy. I kill as a soldier kills, which is as a butcher kills, as quickly, efficiently, and with as least risk to myself as I can arrange.

I don't want power. I just object to idiots having power over me.
