Zitate und Sprüche von Wriothesley

You know, they say if you're scared of the thunder, it's really because you've got something else to hide.

I like signs of strength and hope. They give me reassurance that tomorrow will be better than today. This isn't to be pessimistic, but it's impossible for the present to be without its doubts and troubles — that's just the truth. But come hell or high water, if nothing else then at least we'll be able to figure it out together, right?

As a general rule, the less a person sees of me, the happier their life is.

"If a man will not work, he shall not eat." This phrase has been on the walls of the Fortress of Meropide for as long as anyone can remember. I don't know who first came up with it, but it's been pretty useful in the underworld.

Word of advice: Don't break the law. Hmm, is there anything else? Oh, yeah... Seriously, don't break the law.

I once considered keeping some pets in my office, but soon gave up on the idea. It's just not right to keep small animals where they won't be able to see the sun.

They say there's nothing new under the sun, but somehow a picnic in the warm sunshine never gets old.

If you ever see any stickers on my back, do me a favor and take them off... Melusines like to play pranks sometimes.

Hello, please try to quickly summarize your intents and goals for this meeting. Oh? You're not here for business? Well, that just makes me even more nervous.
Alright, then perhaps we should sit down and discuss things in a little more detail... Oh, and you can call me "Your Grace." That's what they all call me down in the Fortress, and... well, I kinda got used to it.

Most inmates seem to gain a new level of respect for the rules after receiving attention from the Special Security and Surveillance Patrol. As the captain, Chevreuse is an instrumental part of that team.

Sigewinne the head nurse possesses all the virtues associated with the medical profession and genuinely cares for the well-being of everyone around her.
She seems to have picked up some bad habits from me, though, like frequently betting with her Melusine friends over who'd be able to put more stickers on my belongings. Hm? No, I'm not actually bothered by it.

Clorinde is the best Champion Duelist you can find. Her combat prowess is already the stuff of legend. I've never fought her myself, but that's because there's never been a need for it.

I don't know how Sigewinne is faring these days. But if I hear so much as the whiff of a rumor that she's being bullied, I shall summon Wriothesley here and demand an explanation. She's so kind and vulnerable... She brought me some Kamera film the last time she visited, and asked to listen to more of my commentary on the water of Natlan... How long is it until her next vacation?

I like smart people, but I also like playing dumb. I like the feeling of "being trusted".

Being able to read human expressions is quite the useful skill.

Hello, new faces! They call me the head nurse, but I actually handle all the nurse-related work all by myself down here!

You should at least try to be excited. Our free meals are actually pretty good here.

Pack everything up. Whoever's outside is eavesdropping. They'll probably come in once we stop talking.

I hope they'll always remember our "infamous reputation," and understand the meaning behind it. That way, perhaps there won't need to come a day when I have to drag them away for real.

When we were young, we used to play a kind of tabletop game where she would be the adventurer and I the host. Playing things by ear has always come naturally to me - but all the same, I was often stumped by her decisions and the ripostes she came out with. But then again, that's what made it so interesting.

I find that the, um... beauty of bright sunlight is best appreciated from the indoors through a window.

Some days, my mind wanders, and I fantasize about walking into the rain...

Animals can survive for weeks without food, but merely a few days without water. There is no dish that could ever compare to pure, unadulterated water.

Such short little lives our pets have to spend with us, and they spend most of it waiting for us to come home each day.

My ideals have no stains.
I must correct you. People here bear no sins in the eyes of the gods... Only laws and the Tribunal can judge someone.
They can judge even me. So praise my magnificence and purity.

Eternity stretches things out over a long time. But each moment within it becomes all the more fragile.

With you by my side, though our mouths stay silent, my heart is at peace.

Observation is the first step of any experiment, but observing the current world doesn't satisfy me. It lacks an important dimension - that of time.

Some ambitions have the power to heal wounds, to bring victory, to inspire hope. But some ambitions, outlive their masters, long after their soul ascends. They remain as they were in the beginning, burning bright and true, for all eternity.

Dreams are rich bundles of human wisdom.

You should know that all power comes at a price. For every bit of power you gain, so too do you gain more responsibility.

Only once you know and respect death, can you truly understand the value of life.

Sorry... Paimon's mouth just works so much faster than everyone else's.

People say that a secret shared is a secret no more, but I like to think that true friends keep each other's secrets.

The world is full of lost ballads just waiting to be rediscovered.

A warrior must always be ready to face any challenge with his blade. The outcome of the battle is irrelevant - what matters is that you learn from the experience.

Incoming friendly fire! Dodge - or don't. Your call.
