Only a man who doubts his own bravery bristles when called a coward. - Robert Silverberg

Of course, Chalk had little need for further money. It had motivated him once, but not now. Nor did the acquisition of greater power please him much. Despite the customary theories, Chalk had attained sufficient power so that he was willing to stop expanding if only he could be sure of holding what he had. No, it was something else, something inner, that governed his decisions now. When the love of money and the love of power are both sated, the love of love remains.

My only regrets were for poor tactics, not for faulty principles.

Anything big and strange always upsets the people in power.
