We walk the path we choose. Whatever our destiny says, we still have to choose our own path, don't you see? We can walk side by side if we wish.
115	->'''Cinderheart:''' It's not that easy!
116	->'''Lionblaze:''' It ''is''!
117	->'''Cinderheart:''' My head is so full of memories! I feel as though there are two lives inside me, not one. How can it be my choice to make? Doesn't Cinderpelt have a choice? I can't make her a warrior! She was a medicine cat!
118	->'''Lionblaze:''' She chose you. She gave ''you'' the choice. You can only live one life, Cinderpelt. It's your choice! This is ''your'' destiny, not Cinderpelt's. She lived her own life.

126	-->--''The Last Hope''

137	->'''Bramblestar:''' Will you be my deputy, Squirrelflight?
138	->'''Squirrelflight:''' Really?

140	->'''Squirrelflight:''' Then I accept.
141	->'''Leafpool:''' My sister. You deserve this honor, and more. Thank you, for everything.

151	-->--''The Sun Trail''
152
153	->''"The stars have looked down on this place for thousands of seasons. The stone beneath my paws has stood for endless moons. This great rock did not rise from the ground for me to sit on it. These trees did not grow to give you shelter. The grass did not cover the moor to soften our paw steps. The rabbits didn't hollow burrows for us to shelter in. The forest did not burn to destroy your home. This land isn't ours. We live here for a few short moons then disappear. But the land lives on. It isn't ours to claw into morsels and share like prey. We must honor it and protect it. It feeds us and shelters us. Can we all be united in that?"''

161
162	->''"Shadowsight. Never lose your courage. [=StarClan=] will always be with you. Keep us in your heart even though you can't share it with us. You have always been different. You've known it since you were a kit. It's your challenge, but it's also your strength."''
163	-->--'''Leafpool''', ''A Light in the Mist''
164
165	->''"The first lesson of hunting is patience."''
166	-->--'''Stonepelt''', ''Bluestar's Prophecy''
167
168	->''"But from now on, we fight as a Clan. No warrior will go into battle alone. Where one fights, we all fight!"''
169	-->--'''Hailstar''', ''Crookedstar's Promise''
170
171	->''"Remember your promise? Remember the ''exact words''? You vow to put your clan above everything else you want? Your mother, father, mate, kits, and leader! From that one promise, I could take everything precious to you!"''
172	-->--'''Mapleshade''', ''Crookedstar's Promise''
173
174	->'''Mapleshade:''' Your punishment is complete now, Crookedstar. You have lost everything.
175	->'''Crookedstar:''' "o, Mapleshade. You're wrong. I still have a Clan that I love and am proud to lead. And now... ...now everything precious to me is here, in [=StarClan=]. My family is waiting here for me, when my ninth life has passed. It's you who have lost. You have no power over me anymore.
176	->'''Mapleshade:''' I have destroyed you!
177	->'''Crookedstar:''' No, Mapleshade. I still have the cats that I loved. You have nothing and no one.

179
180	->''"A storm of fire and blood will sweep the forest."''
181	-->--''Yellowfang's Secret'' prophecy
182
183	->''"I learned a lot. Friendship and kinship matter more than adventure. Boundaries only exist in our minds. A heart can travel to the horizon without moving a paw step. And I made the best friend any cat ever had."''
184	-->--'''Talltail''', ''Tallstar's Revenge''
185
186	->''"[=StarClan=] knew you would be a good leader in your own right. That's why they led your paws along this path. Firestar didn't appoint you to be his echo, but to be yourself. He trusted you to protect [=ThunderClan=], to make decisions for them based on your own judgement and instinct. You are the leader of [=ThunderClan=] now, Bramblestar. Not Firestar. Be the leader that you want to be. No cat expects anything else."''
187	-->--'''Sandstorm''', ''Bramblestar's Storm''
188
189	->'''Ashfoot:''' I'm so proud of you, Crowfeather. Proud that you're finally listening. No cat can be a good warrior, or a loyal Clanmate, with a closed heart. Now you have opened yours... and [=WindClan=] is better for it.
190	->'''Crowfeather:''' It scares me a little. Caring, when for so long I tried not to. Any cat you love, you can lose.
191	->'''Ashfoot:''' The loss is worth it. I loved you... So much... And now it hurts to part. But I'm better for it, and so are you.
192	->'''Crowfeather:''' Then I won't see you again?
193	->'''Ashfoot:''' Not like this. But I’ll always watch out for you, from [=StarClan=].
194	->'''Crowfeather:''' Goodbye, then. I'll always love you, and miss you.
195	->'''Ashfoot:''' Take care of your kin. And remember that I'm always with you...
196	-->--''Crowfeather's Trial''
197
198	->'''Sol:''' I'm always overlooked! Never made leader of a patrol...always scorned because I used to be a kittypet! I can be a warrior!
199	->'''Leafstar:''' No. You can't. You have no understanding of the warrior code at all. What you've done here proves it. You've risked the lives of young kits...by leaving them alone here. Anything could have happened to them. They could have been lost. They could have ''died''. ''My kits could have '''died'''.'' But you didn't just betray me. You betrayed the entire Clan. You did all this...and you never considered how it would make any of us feel. The Clan is a family, Sol. A community. And you're incapable of thinking about anyone but yourself. I banish you from [=SkyClan=]. You've betrayed my trust, betrayed the warrior code...betrayed everything I thought you believed in.
200	-->--''After The Flood''
201
202	-> ''"I've felt pride before. But it's always been in something I've done for myself. This feeling... This pride in my Clan... That's new. I've begun to feel this sensation. A little at a time, here and there. Teaching the kits to swim. Spending time with Sasha. Like tiny cracks in the ice of a frozen river. But now... Hearing Leopardstar's words, it's... It's as if the river ice has broken, all at once, and it's almost overwhelming me. I'm not angry anymore. I make myself a promise, there on the spot. I'm going to let go of the past. Let myself become fully part of [=RiverClan=]. And defend and protect every cat in it."''
203	-->--'''Feathertail,''' ''A Shadow in [=RiverClan=]''
204
205	->''"But loyalty and love are two very different things: all my life I've chosen loyalty, which has made my path much simpler."''
206	-->--'''Rock,''' ''Cats of the Clans''
207
208	->''"If Leafpool is like water, calm, deep running, reflecting the stars, then Squirrelflight is fire. She has energy to scorch every tree in the forest, and a tongue that could leave scars in beech bark."''
209	-->-- '''Rock,''' ''Cats of the Clans''
