"We sense... something... something ancient... a sickly smell... a chilling wind.

My ancestors scream from within their chambers in my mind

but I cannot understand their words.

This feeling... a memory? It sickens us, and for the first time in our lives

for the first time in generations

We fear."

My favourites from that :

"Stupid bastard hasn't even got a neck" after the pitchfork is bullied to a suicide attempt and they're still taking the piss while he's hanging.

"Hey Barry, looks like one of them squirrels, let's go kick the shit out of him" - dung beetles, unprompted.

Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped... in a never-ending spiral of life and death. Is it a curse? Or some kind of punishment? I often think about the god who blessed us with this cryptic puzzle... and wonder if we'll have the chance to kill him.

Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is? Insanity is doing the exact... same fucking thing... over and over again expecting... shit to change... That. Is. Crazy.

Problem: Seems like the point of this game is victory. The absence of defeat on all fronts. Victory in business ventures and creative undertakings. Victory in love and over other people. Political victory. Ideological victory. Hell, even sexual victory. Definitely a lot of object-based victories, too - having things and not losing them. One problem, though: not a lot of victors in sight. Everyone’s mostly losing. Why is that? And how do you not lose?

Solution: How not to lose? It is impossible not to. The world is balanced on the edge of a knife. It’s a game of frayed nerves. You’re pushed on by numbers and punitive measures: pain, rejection, and unpaid bills. You can either play or you can crawl under a boat and waste away - turn into salt or a flock of seagulls. Your enemies would love that. Or you can fight. The only way to load the dice is to keep on fighting.

Spoilers for the Valhalla DLC of God of War: Ragnarok:

What can I say to you? I remember how it felt to take that throne. All that it meant and all that it did not. A God of war. God of pain, of suffering, of destruction. The Norns said I chase redemption that I know I can never deserve. What does that make me? God of fools. A God of... Hope. "When all else is lost". You lost everything. And everyone. you became... There is no forgiving you. You chose... I chose. What now? Should I, the same man, should I sit? take? proclaim? lead? place myself in service? In service. Should I lose everything and everyone, there's to be enough left inside so that I do not become you? I do not know. But I have... hope. You are cruel and arrogant and selfish. But you are more than that. You have always been more than what others saw. You are more than that.
