Focus on what you care about most in this world, with every atom of your existence. Rip yourself open, and you can rip a hole in the virtual world. That is how you get back to the real.[to Kovacs]
A pawn in the army of the righteous can be more powerful than a king who is without faith.
You have to beat the player, not the game. There are some things you can’t kill your way out of.[to Kovacs]
When you’ve lived long enough, you’ll get it. There are no rules. We do what we want.[to Kovacs]
We’re all broken. There’s nothing more human than that.[to Poe]
We tell ourselves this is progress. Selling each other the fruits of our destruction.
We are more than the sum of our intentions.
This is real power. Cutting away the things that make you weak one at a time.
Some people just need killing.
Second chances are earned in the choices we make, in what we choose to forget, and in what we forgive. With each choice we make, we are led somewhere new.
None of us gets what we deserve.[to Tanaseda]
If you kick a dog, it’ll crawl back, lick your foot, begging for forgiveness. Kick a wolf, and he’ll rip your face off.
