“No one could ever truly be free as long as they loved, and life wasn't worth living without love. So freedom? Overrated.”

“I don’t understand you. You could have handed over the slave and been free. (Paden)Freedom bought on the back of a loved one isn’t worth shit. (Devyn)”

“A pleasurable life balances health, wealth and love. Without health, it is hard to enjoy wealth or love. Without wealth, it's difficult to maintain health or focus attention on the ones we love. Without love, a long healthy life and endless riches are nothing more than an empty hollow prison. Excessive focus on any one aspect to the detriment of the other two robs us of a life worth living.”

“... love given without free will or truthfulness wasn't love at all.”

“A man can live free and not seek to limit the freedom of others so long as no one seeks to limit his.”

“But he'd learned long ago that a life lived without risks pretty much wasn't worth living. Life rewarded courage, even when that first step was taken neck-deep in fear.”
