“There is no such thing as duty. If you know that a thing is right, you want to do it. If you don't want to do it—it isn't right. If it's right and you don't want to do it—you don't know what right is and you're not a man.”

“Don't do what you want. Do what you don't want. Do what you're trained not to want. Do the things that scare you the most.”

“There are things you don't want to know you can do”

“When you do something that works you have a happiness, but I don't know if it's a feeling of power. Power is a frightening thing and that's not what I'm interested in. I want to do certain things and make them right in my mind and that's it.”

“what's right? If you want something, you have the right to take it. If you want to do something, you have the right to do it.”

“But it's not enough to know right from wrong. You need the strength to do what's right, even when what you want most in the world is the wrong thing.”

“You know that the things you put it your head stay there, right?'

'Yeah. You remember the things you want to forget and forget the things you want to remember.”

“I don't like this," he said. I don't like knowing you can't forgive me, Claire. Please, I said I was sorry, what do you want me to do? Beg? I will. I'll get on my knees right here if you want.”

“But right now I’m here with you. And I want to know where you are, what you need, and what you want to do.”

“It's important to know what you don't want, but it's vital to know what you DO want.”
