"Always the wild child, conceived in flames, born of fire. Drawn to the forbidden, witch, warlock, burning stones. Her blood is made of moonlight; part dark, part light. Her heart, it's a sword; fiercely loyal and will fight to the death for those whom she loves. You can throw her in the fire, she always returns as a flame: the fervor is her anchor, her safe-haven... her blood."
"Playing the part of a charitable soul was only for those who were afraid of taking a stand in life.

"A sweet soul will take you further than a sweet tongue."
"To see a man's true colors, tell him you're saving yourself for marriage. To see a woman's true colors, tell her you're poor."
"Of Manners gentle, of Affections mild; In Wit a man; Simplicity, a child."
"An evil person will have evil friends. A righteous person will have righteous friends. The company you keep is hidden treasure or masked demise."
"Martial arts is not about fighting; it's about building character."
