If one fights just for oneself in solitude, one can’t really become strong.
Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.
Even the strongest of opponents always has a weakness.
Today I saw a slave become more powerful than the emperor of Rome.
Tears are handy for washing away troubling and sad feelings. But when you grow up, you’ll learn that there are things so sad, they can never be washed away by tears. That there are painful memories that should never be washed away. So people who are truly strong laugh when they want to cry. They endure all of the pain and sorrow while laughing with everybody else.
Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.
But when the strong were too weak to hurt the weak, the weak had to be strong enough to leave.
Vengeance isn't power. Anyone can take a life. But to give life, that's true power.
Power don't come from a badge or a gun. Power comes from lying. Lying big, and gettin' the whole damn world to play along with you. Once you got everybody agreeing with what they know in their hearts ain't true, you've got e'm by the balls.
