"You’re not being paid to like your work."

"“I don’t know how many ways I can say no before it sinks into his concrete head.” The rich rarely accept “no” as an answer."

"Conquering a kingdom is always the easy part. It is keeping it that is difficult."

"“The world spins despite me, not because of me,” he muttered."

"Enlightenment and peace can never be achieved by force."

"Fate is created, not ordained."
