Quotes by Chris Claremont (?)

“The key isn't winning -- or losing, it's making the attempt. I may never be what I ought to be, want to be -- but how will I know unless I try?

Sure, it's scary, but what's the alternative? Stagnation - A safer, more terrible form of death. Not of the body, but of the spirit.

An animal knows what it is, and accepts it. A man may know what he is -- but he questions. He dreams. He strives. Changes. Grows.”
― Chris Claremont, Wolverine

“Life is the ultimate adventure, and Death, the prize that awaits us all.”

“I can still see her face -- The sorrow in her eyes, her voice, as she condemns me. I didn't know it was possible to feel such shame. To feel so sick at heart.

I'm lost inside, my soul -- all that I thought I was, and am, and ever will be -- shattered, cast to the winds.

Compared to this, death is a mercy.”
― Chris Claremont, Wolverine
