The Hound

"The things we love destroy us every time."

"There's no shame in fear, only in how you face it."

"A man's got to know what he's good at. I'm good at killing things."

"The world doesn't care what you want or need. It takes what it wants."

"Drink and fight and fuck. That's all that matters."

"You think you're better than me because you're a knight? You're just another killer."

"I've seen what men are truly capable of, and it's not pretty."

"Loyalty is a luxury. Survival is a necessity."

"The dead don't care about your pride or your honor."

"I don't need forgiveness. I need a drink."

"Wars are won by men with sharp swords and sharper wills."

"You can't save everyone. Don't waste your time trying."

"Fear keeps you alive if you let it."

"A good sword and a steady hand—that's all you need."

"People are shit. Remember that."

"Mercy is a luxury for those who can afford it."

"I've done terrible things. I'll do more before I'm done."

"The world breaks everyone eventually."

"You learn more from the dead than the living."

"Gold and glory mean nothing when you're bleeding out."

"I don't believe in much, but I believe in steel."

"Every scar tells a story of survival."

"Hate keeps a man warm better than any fire."

"I've buried better men than I'll ever be."

"There's honor in honest work, even if it's dark work."

"A man does what he's good at, and I'm good at one thing."

"Peace is just a pause between wars."

"The strong do what they can, the weak suffer what they must."

"You either die young or live long enough to become the monster."

"Drink water and keep your wits about you."
