Winter is Coming

"The Kingsguard do not run. Then or now. We swore a vow." "Jiang Wei ran to and fro slaying all he met till another heart spasm seized him,' Failed!' he shrieked,'but it is the will of Heaven.'He put an end to his own life" Romance of the Three Kingdoms "If you would take a man's life, you owe it to him to look him into his eyes and hear his final words. And if you cannot bear to do that, then perhaps the man does not deserve to die." Ned Stark

'None of us choose our end, really. A king may move a man. A father may claim a son. But remember that even when those who move you be kings, or, men of power. Your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God you cannot say 'but i was told by others to do thus' or that virtue was not convienient at the time. This will not suffice.

A powerful quote...
