“They have decided nothing can kill them but God himself, and they don't even believe in him." -- David Benioff; City of Thieves”

“The real reason why so few men believe in God is that they have ceased to believe that even a God can love them.”

“Jesus himself did not try to convert the two thieves on the cross; he waited until one of them turned to him.”

“A man inferior with the blade or with his thoughts can still so elevate himself," Entreri explained curtly, "if he can impart the belief that some god or other speaks through him. It is the greatest deception in all the world and one embraced by kings and lords, while the minor lying thieves on the streets or Calimport and other cities lose their tongues for so attempting to coax the purses of others.”

“Even if you don't believe in god or fate, at least you can believe in narrative.”

“Stories have a unique power, David. The Inuit believe they can capture souls.”
