From 'Nobody's War':

We live in strange times, but haven't there been stranger, weirder, and more difficult times than ours? It is the seventh millennium, and humans have colonized the far reaches of the universe. Science has made disease obsolete, but it hasn't been able to alter the human condition. People are, well, people. They are driven by greed, ambition, and an insatiable urge to overpower fellow humans. Relations matter still, and so does avarice. But in the end, who pays the ultimate price? Whose wars are these really that we fight?

Also, from Nobody's War:

"There are no winners in a war - there never were any winners in any war."

"It always takes an outsider. For better or for worse."

"Trust means nothing to us. It's a phony construct. We do not deal in such currencies."

"I do not age. I may die, but only if a system somewhere thinks it's my time."

"Pride is a pricier commodity than we often realize."

"There is an endless Śūnyatā around us, a nothingness. We all try to find meaning for ourselves in it."
