Character: Shepherd

To have sympathy and to have weakness are two different things.

Trust means not to doubt the honesty of each other.

- What's on your mind?
I don't know where to start.
- What do you want.
The ship that appeared last night... I was the one they are looking for.
- Do you know why you need them?
- No. But this General zod, even if I surrender, there is no guarantee that he will keep his word. But if there's a chance I can save Earth by turning myself to him, shouldn't I give up?
- What's your gut telling you?
- Zod can't be trusted. The problem is that I'm not sure that the inhabitants of the Earth can be.
Sorry to bother you.
- Sometimes you just have to make yourself believe. And trust will come later.

- Have a good talk?
- [spits shepherd in the face]
- Okay. I always liked the hard way.

- To go against the Church - means to go against God!
- Then I go against God.

- I may not have seen war, but I know the look of a man who likes to kill. You it's easy.
- I just know it. The word "easy" here is inappropriate.

We need to celebrate risk, not victory. Because to take the risk or not - depends on you, and win from a variety of circumstances which cannot be foreseen.

Not everyone will, but everyone should try. No need to get angry at yourself for failing, you have lived-it is only for not trying.

Each of you needs to do on earth, and you have the necessary talent to make it as best as possible. Locate your business, discover your talent, and your life will gain meaning. Does not happen of people without talent. A life that talent was not needed, wasted.

When you do something, think about how it will respond in time and space. There is no action without consequences. When you speak about someone, you change it for the worse. When you are afraid or lie, you create fear and turn the lie into reality. This rule of Causality.

To understand someone, you need to stand in his place. This rule is Empathy.

You can get anything, only ceasing to desire it. The rule of Renunciation.
