A beggar's mistake harms no one but the beggar. A king's mistake, however, harms everyone but the king. Too often, the measure of power lies not in the number who obey your will, but in the number who suffer for your stupidity.
--Scott Bakker, the Judging Eye
His books have quotes like this at the beginning of every chapter, part of why I love them.
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.
