"My mother always told me that to loose all kits is a she-cat's worst nightmare, but to loose one parent is the test every warrior must take.

Every moon stays with you until StarClan lifts them off you, till the end of your life. Sometimes, you feel strong, as if you're fifty moons old, and sometimes, you want to cry and wail as if you're only two." She lick Silentstorm on the head hopefully. "There's a reason StarClan gave us feelings. They give us experience that we can use later in our lives."
"If it were necessary to give the briefest possible definition of imperialism, we should have to say that imperialism is the monopoly stage of capitalism."
