To hear, one must be silent. - Ursula K. Le Guin

There is a certain bleakness in finding hope where one expected certainty. Arren found himself unwilling to stay on these cold summits. He said after a little while, “I see why you say that only men do evil, I think. Even sharks are innocent; they kill because they must.”
"That is why nothing else can resist us. Only one thing in the world can resist an evil-hearted man. And that is another man. In our shame is our glory. Only our spirit, which is capable of evil, is capable of overcoming it.”

Greed puts out the sun.

You’ll know what to say when the time comes. That’s the art, eh? What to say, and when to say it. And the rest is silence.
