“It matters not what you fight but what you fight for.”

“What you cannot escape, you must fight; what you cannot fight, you must endure.”

“What has mood to do with it? You fight when the necessity arises—no matter the mood! Mood's a thing for cattle or making love or playing the baliset. It's not for fighting.”

“• The key to fighting is never to fight unless the cause is so great that you couldn’t bear not to defend it and the losses you are going to suffer are things that you could afford to lose. If you do fight, the thing to remember is that it is going to hurt because that is what happens in a fight and you might as well reconcile yourself to it in the beginning and then it will not matter when it happens”

“fight for what you believe in,for if you don't you will be forever fighting against yourself.”

“The fight isn't over until you win it, Fitz. That's all you have to remember. No matter what the other man says.”
