Knowing Who You Are

Motivational

Adventures are only interesting once you’ve lived to see the end of them. Before that, they are nothing but fear, and being too cold or too hot or too wet or too hungry, and getting hurt.

Guilt is a good friend, isn’t it? It will stand at your back when every other friend has abandoned you, and in the face of all reason it will stay by your side, and even when you tell it, “I am moving on now,” it will say, “I shall never leave you; never.” If only I could find a lover as faithful as guilt.

Good Friend

Moving

Your Side

Some of the monsters were people we knew. People we thought we could trust.

I would rather be right and die than be wrong and kill.
