Character: Valentine Where

- Oh, Ender, thought Valentine, as I wanted you to live a life of joy. But nobody is available. We learn to speak, and the language comes to us, bearing the lies and threats, cruelty and disappointment. We learn to walk, and each step takes us away from the rest home. To keep the joy of childhood, need to die as a child or never to grow up, not grow. So, you can grieve about the lost child, but do not regret the good man strengthened by pain and jerseyses fault, which, in spite of everything, was kind to me and to many other people that I loved and almost knew. Almost, almost understood.

We do everything required to deserve a place in society, but live for those hours that are spend at home. For the two of us and our children. In the history books about me will never write.
- You would be surprised by it, ' growled Valentine.
- Uninteresting life. Nothing to read, - said Olhado. But its interesting to live.

Certainly, this normality was a bit stretched. Only Valentina my own experience I know that normality is always something feigned, and people are constantly playing roles that, in their opinion, they are required to play.

- I see how you can implement the ideas in the consciousness of society. I know how to do it. She remember Val. Here's comes to mind good idea, you say out loud, and in two weeks or a month later hear one unfamiliar to you adult repeats it to someone else, too completely a stranger. Or do you see it on video, suddenly stumble upon it online...
- Well, I'm somewhere caught these words before they "invent"...
- You are greatly mistaken, sister. In this world only two, maybe three thousand people can compare their mental abilities. Most of them are interrupted on bread and water. Teach the poor guy, or anything examined. And only a few have real power.

The power ultimately is in the hands of those who seek her.

Fight and lose, then you're not to blame. But if you refuse to even try, then that's all you.

Real respect always comes later than official recognition.

The first thing we learnt, to kill. And well, I learned, and that we hadn't been, but have owned the tigers.

- I was afraid I was still in love with you.
I was hoping for the same.
My fear, your wish has come true.

When wearing a mask, sooner or later it grows to face.

- It all comes down to one thing: with this understanding, allowing you to defeat the enemy, love comes to him. Apparently, it is impossible to know someone to understand his desire and faith, not by loving as he loves himself. And in that moment of love...
- You win.

Welcome to the human race. No one controls your life. The only choice is to give your fate in the hands of good people who love you.
