- Thracian Primaris
From space, it glowers like an oozing cataracted eye. It is corpulent, swollen, sheened in gray veils of atmospheric soot. Through which the billion billion lights of the city hives glimmer like rotting stars. It glares balefully at all ships that approach.

- Human life
I only studied a little history. I've learned that there are two currents of thought in human society. The opinion that there are things worth more than human life and the opinion that there is nothing preferable to life. When people begin to fight, it's on the pretext of the former type of people and it justifies the latter when they stop.
