Once Committed To Fight, Cut. Everything Else Is Secondary. Cut. That Is Your Duty, Your Purpose, Your Hunger. There Is No Rule More Important, No Commitment That Overrides That One. Cut. Cut From The Void, Not From Bewilderment. Cut The Enemy As Quickly And Directly As Possible. Cut Decisively, Resolutely. Cut Into The Enemy’s Strength. Flow Through The Gaps In His Guard. Cut Him. Cut Him Down Utterly. Don’t Allow Him A Breath. Crush Him. Cut Him Without Mercy To The Depths Of His Spirit." -richard Rahl

Knowing When To Fight Is Just As Important As Knowing How.

To The Right Person, The Person Who Is Truly Born To It, Duty Is A Form Of Love, Through Which All Is Possible. Duty Is Not Always A Denial Of Things, But An Expansion Of Them To Others. Duty Is Not Always A Chore, But Is Best Carried Out With Love.

The Only Sovereign I Can Allow To Rule Me Is Reason. The First Law Of Reason Is This: What Exists Exists; What Is Is. From This Irreducible, Bedrock Principle, All Knowledge Is Built. This Is The Foundation From Which Life Is Embraced. Reason Is A Choice. Wishes And Whims Are Not Facts, Nor Are They A Means To Discovering Them. Reason Is Our Only Way Of Grasping Reality–it Is Our Basic Tool Of Survival. We Are Free To Evade The Effort Of Thinking, To Reject Reason, But We Are Not Free To Avoid The Penalty Of The Abyss We Refuse To See." -richard

There Is No Place So Dangerous As A World Without Magic.
