I offer my scars... what you call "wisdom"... as insight I have gathered from my comfort of living within both the light and the shadow."

And wizards don't use magic to kill people. They use it to discover, to protect, to mend, to help. Not to destroy."
"If the nature of her foes would speak to the credit of Bridget's death, then surely the nature of her allies would speak even more loudly about clearly of her life."
