"The hardest of nights are the ones where you watch you’re brothers and sisters whom you’ve fought so hard alongside die under the care of the field medics who have tried so hard to keep them alive. It is far worse knowing that they look to me as though I am some metaphorical angel to deliver them from the fate of death… and it is soul rending to know that I could never save them. Not even if I tried."

"Though I was born human, I was made into something else… something… less. Admittedly, what I am ultimately benefited all of mankind, however I weep for what others experienced that I will never have for myself. I may be Spartan, but I wish I was human. This is why I will always sacrifice my own safety in order to protect the men and women of the U.N.S.C. with my own life, for in my eyes, I am an acceptable loss."
