“What truly makes a man who he is? Is it the strength of his arms, or the courage of his soul?”
Source: Drenai series, The Swords of Night and Day, Ch. 8
Context: What I did understand from the rebirth process was that the rebirth reproduced a physical duplicate of the original. But this is my point. It is physical. What truly makes a man who he is? Is it the strength of his arms, or the courage of his soul? You have your own soul, Harad. You are not Druss. Live your own life.
“For not by numbers of men, nor by measure of body, but by valor of soul is war to be decided.”
As quoted in 100 Decisive Battles : From Ancient Times to the Present (2001) by Paul K. Davis, p. 93; cited to the records of Procopius, in Procopius, Vol. IV, I, pp. 15-16.
“True, I am young, but for souls nobly born
Valor doesn’t await the passing of years.”
Je suis jeune, il est vrai; mais aux âmes bien nées
La valeur n’attend point le nombre des années.
Don Rodrigue, act II, scene ii.
Le Cid (1636)
“Football is a game played with arms, legs and shoulders but mostly from the neck up.”
Great Quotes from Great Sports Heroes (1997) by Peggy Anderson, p. 35
“To lose an arm or a leg would be painful, but to lose the central truth of your life felt—fatal.”
