“If you carry someone else's fears and live by someone else's values, you may find that you have lived their lives.”

“Someone like you makes it hard to live without somebody else”

“People don't lose their lives, Your Majesty. Their lives are taken from them, or else they lay them down themselves." And which will be your fate, Gabriel?"I'll lay mine down, Lady.”
