“It doesn't take courage to kill someone,' Klaus said. 'It takes a severe lack of moral stamina.”
“Discouragement is a moral state, a failure of heart; you treat it by taking courage, not Prozac.”
“It takes a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else.”
“lacking stamina, it became a withering whimsy of a flirtation.”
“But death doesn't work like that. It doesn't care if someone loves you, doesn't want you to go. It just takes. It takes and it takes until eventually you have nothing left.”
“You travel with a whetstone on your arm? (Kiara)You don’t ever want to kill someone with a dull knife. It takes too long to sever their arteries, or puncture organs, and it makes it even messier than normal. (Nykyrian)”
