Fearlessness is a fool's boast, to my mind. The only men with no fear in them are dead, or the soon to be dead, maybe. Fear teaches you caution, and respect for your enemy, and to avoid sharp edges used in anger. All good things in their place, believe me.

Blood gets you nothing but more blood. It follows me now, always, like my shadow, and like my shadow I can never be free of it. I should never be free of it. I’ve earned it. I’ve deserved it. I’ve sought it out. Such is my punishment.

If everything you say gets laughed at. . . then you become afraid of everyone. . . and are no longer able to speak. . . even knowing all that does is bother everyone. . . Your heart. . . . . . . shuts down. . . And your words die.
