In war, there were no good choices. Only choices you could live with after.
Survival was a moment to moment affair.
Pain is a lesson you'll never forget.
Sometimes, all you could do was try to outlive your bad luck.
Killing a man didn't make you a monster. It just proved you were alive.
War had a way of making people forget what they were.
Fear was a disease that spread from one person to another, poisoning everyone in its path.
In this world, you either survived or you didn't.
Revenge was a trap that ensnared everyone it touched.
Sometimes, the hardest choices were the ones you had to make for others.
No one ever really won a war. They only survived it.
The past was a ghost that haunted your every step.
