Seth Dickinson
“She accepts the world as it is and the world accepts her thus. She is not mastered. What is done to her cannot confine what she will do.”
Seth Dickinson, The Monster Baru Cormorant

C.S. Lewis
“Good and evil both increase at compound interest. That is why the little decisions you and I make every day are of such infinite importance. The smallest good act today is the capture of a strategic point from which, a few months later, you may be able to go on to victories you never dreamed of. An apparently trivial indulgence in lust or anger today is the loss of a ridge or railway line or bridgehead from which the enemy may launch an attack otherwise impossible.”
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
