I think, actually I know that it’s overwhelmingly possible for men to conduct such atrocities as to kill a man in cold blood, to burn towns and to parade with the the dead on the...

The way he moves-a singular motion with such ease-put me in awe. He takes down one, two and then three without even bending his back. Knocking down a man so gracefully was nothing I had...

I can pick a liar from a lineup of thieves and slanderers: the best of the best. I was hoping you would not resist the information we need but I must ask you now to...

Well, you should turn your lips inside out because you’re going to spend the rest of this trip talking to yourself.

When you throw religion into the mix, you have a whole new set of problems. You can’t say one has nothing to do with the other because that is simply not true. You have to...

I believe in a higher power and that it works within us. Whatever the name doesn’t matter, it’s the thought behind it that matters. It’s the way we live our lives that matter and as...

I can’t. If I do, I will second guess myself and nothing would get done. I’d stay in one place. I’d let my fear get me.

When I am brave enough to say goodbyeI’ll use the wings you gave meand away I’ll fly

Because deep down, we’re all afraid of having peace. Because deep down we know we’re all poisoned. We’re more afraid of ourselves than we are of others. In that thinking, we deny ourselves the very...

The darkness is no place to be in times like this.

May your dreams be fleeting,” Gravier says to us and I smile. I don’t want my dreams to be fleeting tonight. Tonight I hope I would see something, anything to put my mind at ease....

If you’re brave enough to do something you better damn well be brave enough to accept the consequences.

My dear cousin means the world to me. He is my only ally and I lost him. Deep in my heart I know he didn’t want to blame me but his heart is set on...

Now go. Leaving quickly is the best thing you can do. Don’t think about it, don’t look back, and don’t think that what’s behind you is better than what’s in front because it’s not. Not...

As children we reveled in the dream that there was a place out there that was different from the one we lived in.

It’s irresponsible to think things are just going to work out because you believe things happen for a reason. I refuse to accept these things. I refuse to give in to that absurdity. You saw...

I see my father. I see him gone away. My world is a little bit colder.

I can hear birds singing but they don’t sound at all like the birds I knew. These are mocking and possessed. I imagine they have deformed bodies with glowing eyes, leading the wagon to my...

When I go to describe something as remarkable as what I saw that day, I could only say it was a place of dreams. The water is crystalline clear, a mixture of opalescent colors and...

Dead. The words fall from my tongue and linger there like poison. A slow death hanging from my lips. I shake the thought away and swallow but I can still taste the remnants in the...

I have my own. I don’t believe in religion, just as you mentioned. I think it does more harm than good. Believers see it as the one truth, non believers see it as trash and...

Everyone makes mistakes. If everyone fell into the sand after making a mistake we would never get anywhere. We’d all be washed away in the sea, lost forever. Do you understand?

There it is again. Promises. They used to hold such high value when I was younger. Now they just bore into my heart like a knife just waiting to twist. I brush the sand from...

I’ve come to believe that we, as people, only tend to remember only certain of what we hear or read just for that reason. Most of what we retain coincide with our personal beliefs and...

A book, child. A book just for you, in a lost language.

Otherwise, you’re just another place marker in the ground. These buildings will rot here, their bodies are above the ground taunting us with what we did wrong as a people. Reminding us of the evil...

Everyone is good at heart. We all do things with the greatest of intentions and most of the time we do it for selfish reasons. Myself included.

I trust you. Those are the last words my father said before he left. That means that every decision I make, I would have to question myself whether it was the right one. I can...

Grin is still beside me. His arms are hung tightly as his side and I take his hand. It is like touching stone and he turns stiffly toward me as we begin making our way...

That’s why we’re out here. We were hoping Jimmi would bring enough damsels for us all, though!

My cousin. His name is Abel. He is two years older than I. Next to my father, he is dearest to my heart.

Maybe you should stop putting so much faith into what you read in books.

Just as I had done, my father sleeps off and on for days. Sometimes I sit by the bed in Marta’s house and stare at him until I feel like it isn’t a dream anymore....

Whatever my path, I have faith I will end up where I need to be.

If you have nothing to love, you have nothing to lose. Even your own life becomes meaningless.

There can be falseness in trying to do something that should come naturally to people.

Do you really think what you read in those books is true? Sure, some of it may be but have you ever actually paid attention to it? It’s all false set upon us as truth....

It means that you can shut your mouth and still say what you need to say using the other gifts the gods gave us.

Just because you have power, doesn’t mean you should use it, especially for the wrong reasons.

..and she a star, to outshine all the suns of mans days.

I begin to cry as my walls of my resolve break down. I don’t know how long I can hold on. The pain is horrid and I curl into myself wrestling with a wish to...
