The Will of the Many (Hierarchy, #1)

by James Islington

“They say that young men know they will die, but only old men believe it.

“Silence is a statement, Diago. Inaction picks a side. And when those lead to personal benefit, they are complicity.”

“Just because you are good at something does not make others bad at it.”

“They ask something small of you. A thing you would prefer not to do, but is not so terrible. You think you are working your way up, but in fact they are changing you. Moulding you into what they think you should be, one compromise at a time.”

“Death is only meaningless if it does not change us, Vis.”
