“Collect every cheese pastry you can find while I distract the bigots.”
“Follow the evil-colored rocks, find the evil-doer with rocks for brains."
"The Chantry? The Order? They were created by man. They have a concrete beginning, and roots in politics and war. The only constant is the people: the poor, the suffering, the lost. Those are who I stand for. Those are who I fight for."
“I saved them, I saved so many of them! Who cares if they wear robes or plate armor?”
“My path is not easy, but it is worthy. And it is easier to walk it with others."
“All of you. All of you are cruel. All of you are being mean. All of you are smart enough to know that you are doing it; you are making that choice every time you open your damn pretty mouths. Make the choice to shut the fuck up instead!”
"It is not the only way, and I will not allow it to be the only way."
"I know that's not how 'the Game' works. I don't care. If anyone believes we are facing a problem that can't be solved without breaking my principles… I will personally attend to it."
"There is nothing I can do to make the world a better place. I can only keep it going. And what if, one day, I’m too tired? What if, one day, I decide it’s not worth saving? What if, one day… It only takes one day."
“I didn’t have a choice getting into this mess, Dorian Pavus. I never had a choice. I have a choice of how I get out of it. Don’t take that from me too!”
"Belief is not a choice. Belief is a state of being. Hope is a choice.”
"But then at the slightest hint that someone might want to share this pain, to accompany me on this journey—it all comes rushing back. The hope, the fear. And then I’m just waiting for the moment they leave, and I'm just—"
“I may not live forever, but for now, that flower has new life in me. And my duty to that flower, and to the Rememberer, is to give it new life in the retelling.”
“Someone taught you that you were an acceptable sacrifice. Someone taught you not to keep hope for yourself. Someone taught you that you were undeserving.”
“Maybe it will take centuries more for things to change—but we should start now."

Y'all if you're an Austen fan and haven't read Pride and Protest by Nikki Payne you should get on that asap if only because it has the greatest first meeting between Dorsey and Liza, complete with cringe racial misidentification ("Solidaridad, hermano" lmaooooo) that leads to Liza assuming Dorsey is The Help, Dorsey rolling with it in order to fuck over her protesting his luxury apartment complex, and a don't-look-don't-look-ah-dammit *glances at her tits* moment.
Genuinely a masterclass in how it's possible to wanna bang someone's brains out while making a lot of (wrong) assumptions about them based on first impressions.
