You can’t live somewhere, if the people don’t want you to be there.
You can change a man’s heart, but not his head.
Wyrd bið ful āræd. Fate is inexorable. We are given power and we lose it.
Wyrd bið ful āræd. Fate is inexorable. A man who rules by fear cannot afford a single setback.
Wyrd bib ful araed. Fate is fate. It cannot be changed or cheated.

Why do we fight? Because we were born.
When a man cannot fight he should curse. The gods like to feel needed.

We should know who they are, before we kill them. That’s just being polite.
We live in a world where the strongest win, and the strongest must expect to be disliked.
We had to fight, because to decline battle was a defeat.
