"Sometimes the threat is so grave, the worst of enemies must become the best of friends."

-Dan Abnett, Penitent (Bequin #2)

"Heretics are the only ones worth trusting,’ the voice said, ‘for they have everything to gain and everything to lose."

-Dan Abnett, Penitent (Bequin #2)

"I thought I had trained you well, Beta,' she said, 'but I see I must reinforce the most basic conditioning. Know yourself. Understand yourself. In this life, most answers lie within, or in plain view right in front of us. They can be seen with ease if you but take the time to look."

-Dan Abnett, Penitent (Bequin #2)

"All is deceit. Nothing wears a true face or uses a true name. Nothing is as it appears to be, as if the whole universe were busily playing out a function, ‘guised in cunning. The mad are sane, the blind can see, the sane are otherwise demented, good is evil, and up, for all I care, is down."
