"Sometimes - most times - we don't get what we want. Rarely do we even get what we deserve. We get what we get. That's it. Yesterday is gone, Bison. It will never come again. Tomorrow hasn't happened yet. What we have is now."

- Palima, Winter Warriors, David Gemmell

"The one certain thing in life is that no one can make the truth untrue simply because it hurts."

- Yanakov, The Honor of the Queen, David Weber

"Pain... seems to me an insufficient reason not to embrace life. Being dead is quite painless. Pain, like time, is going to come on regardless. Question is, what glorious moments can you win from life in addition to the pain?"

- Cordelia, Barrayar, Lois McMaster Bujold
