"Dark times lie ahead of us and there will be a time when we must choose between what is easy and what is right."

"It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities."

"Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it."

"Understanding is the first step to acceptance, and only with acceptance can there be recovery."

"We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided."

"The consequences of our actions are always so complicated, so diverse."

"Remarkable what power we can hold over one another, the mere names and histories."

"Curiosity is not a sin, but we should exercise caution with our curiosity."

"There is much that I would place in the catagory of lies - mere exaggerations."

"It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously."

"Greatness inspires envy, envy engenders spite, spite spawns lies."

"Even miracles take a little time."

"Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical."

"The world is indeed full of peril and in many places the load falls upon the shoulders of the small."

"Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike."

"I have never been much troubled by the opinion of others."

"You think the dead we have lost stop caring for us? Time is the fire in which we burn."

"I have always valued bravery. But perhaps in a boy of his age it is not valued as much as it ought to be."

"The truth is a beautiful and terrible thing, and should therefore be treated with great caution."

"If you wish to know more, you must ask your mother."

"Youth cannot know how age thinks and feels, but old men are guilty if they forget what it was to be young."

"Our preference has always been to work in concert with those in authority."

"I will always help those who ask for it, in the deepest, darkest, blackest times."

"It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends."

"Those that we love never truly leave us."

"I do not claim to be more advanced in the Mystic Arts than I am."

"The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing."

"Never forget that your time in this school is extremely valuable."

"A heart has a way of knowing things that the mind cannot."

"The consequences of our actions are always so complicated, so diverse, that predicting the results is very difficult indeed."
