In this world, it's kill or be killed.
Sometimes you have to do the wrong thing for the right reasons.
Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.
We don't kill the living.
The dead don't bother me. It's the living you have to watch out for.
Sometimes the hardest thing in this world is to live in it.
When you care about people, hurt is part of the package.
The world went to shit, but we're still here. We're still alive.
Fear can't be the only factor in your decision-making.
You don't have to like what I did. You just have to accept it.
Strength doesn't come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn't.
In a world full of monsters with friendly faces, the ones with rotten souls tend to stand out.
