“Chaos isn't a pit, Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, are given a chance to climb. They refuse, they cling to the realm or the gods or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.”

─ Petyr Baelish, Game of Thrones Season 3 Episode 6

“혼돈이란 구덩이가 아니죠. 혼돈은 사다리입니다. 많은 이들이 사다리를 타고 올라가려고 하다가 떨어지고 다시는 시도도 못하죠. 추락은 그들을 망가트리죠. 그리고 올라갈 수 있는 기회를 얻은 어떤 이들이 있죠. 그들은 거부하고 왕국에, 신에 혹은 사랑에 매달리기도 하죠. 모두 환상일 뿐입니다. 오직 사다리만이 현실이죠. 거기엔 오르는 것 뿐이니깐요.

Father: Honey, did you punch a kid in the nose today?
with your fist? in the nose?

Daughter: Yep. But not one kid. Two.

F: What was the reason, honey?

Son: She hits good when she wants to.

F: No, honey. I think we should talk about this right now.
If you punched somebody, there must have been a good reason for it.

D: They were making fun of Colton.
They made fun about him sitting on Jesus'lap.

Mother: Honey, you know you should have turned the other cheek, though, right?

D: I did turn his other cheek. When I hit him.

S: Is Cassie going to get a spanking?

When I understand my enemy
well enough to defeat him,
then in that moment,
I also love him.”

Unless all of us are free,
None of us will be free.

You're going in for first degree murder
Even if you get the minimum sentence,
your parole officer has not been born yet.

너는 일급 살인죄로 깜빵에 갈 것이다.
최소 형량을 선고받는다고 하더라도
너의 가석방 담당자는 아직 태어나지도 않았을거야.

— Detective Lindsay

Takeshi Kovacs: When everyone lies, telling the truth isn't just rebellion. It's an act of revolution.

So think carefully when you speak it, because the truth is a weapon.

Just as repetition reinforces repetition, change begets change.
I guess the truth is we never really know what's coming.
Sometime the only way to find out where you fit in
is to step out of the routine
because sometimes where you really belong
was waiting right around the corner all along
