“I am Cortana, of the same steel and temper as Joyeuse and Durendal.

The wound is the place where the Light enters you.”

“Men are like steel — when they lose their temper, they lose their worth.”

“No. If I am in such a temper, than the person I am in a temper with needs to leave.”

“There’s a place in the soul where you’ve never been wounded.”

“A knife is sharpened on stone, steel is tempered by fire, but men must be sharpened by men.”

“My mother… she is beautiful, softened at the edges and tempered with a spine of steel. I want to grow old and be like her.”

“The scar of fire, the dint of steel,
Are easier than Love's wounds to heal.”

“You've been busy using your breaking and entering skills," I said.
"I just enter. I don't usually break."
"You broke down Pitch's door."
"Lost my temper."

-Ranger and Stephanie”

“When I lose my temper, honey, you can't find it any place.”

“Don’t seek peace and happiness with the same people and in the same place where you never found it.”
