A lone scream in the darkness
"Where I came from, I could not tell you.
Where I was, I had no say in.
One thing should have been clear from the very beginning, though:
Where I was going."
Blood makes the grass grow
"It did not seem fair that growing up caused pain, so I shared it.
It did not seem fair that I alone should bleed, so I shared that too.
The harbor was my playground, the streets my schooling.
My graduation? Bodies floating in the water."
Love and Carnage
"Apart, we may as well have been nothing.
Together, we were nine hundred and twenty-seven.
Our bodycount? Far higher.
Our idea of romance? Whole buildings drenched in red."
An end, but not the end
"I went to sleep without knowing if I'd ever wake up.
I wasn't made for the world I left behind.
I was... incompatible.
But the world changed."

There and Back Again
"It is easy to go down into Hell;
night and day the gates of dark Death stand wide;
but to climb back again, to retrace one's steps to the upper air -
there's the rub, the task."
Different path, different purpose
"I know now why you brought me back. But I still don't know why I stayed.
You gave me a chance to make up for everything I've done, and I'm grateful...
...but you forget, redemption was never really my thing."
No sense in making sense
"A straight answer? It would be a disservice.
Tell you what you want to know, and you will never stop to think for yourself.
The tools you need for the job, those I will provide.
The purpose behind them is yours."
Third Eye Mine
"Grand Arhat Xue's teachings were not for you.
You have twisted them, perverted them, tainted them with your curse.
Zao-Lat's thievery will be repaid thusly:
Your unlives, every last one, forfeit."

"They say the third time's the charm. As with all gweilo 'wisdom', this seems doubtful."

"When the chains of your rage eventually snap, and they will, I will help you find a new direction - whether you want me to or not."

"There is no man, however wise, who has not at some point in his youth said things, or lived a life, the memory of which is so unpleasant to him that he would gladly expunge it. And yet he ought not entirely regret it, because he cannot be certain that he has indeed become a wise man."

"Life ... is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

"The map showing the route to the goal."

"The driver decides what the goal is."

"The horn, the front bumper; a tool that removes all in our way."
|
|
"The engine provides the drive to go somewhere, indifferent towards direction."

"'Are we there yet?' asks the child, and so we question if we should have gone at all."

"Westerners seem to have shockingly little respect for their ancestors."
