->"You'll do it because it must be done. You'll do it because nobody else can. And if you don't, ''millions'' will die. If you tell me that's not enough (of a reason), I won't believe you. This is what has always set our people apart. A thousand years of sacrifice in our veins. And every generation must know its own suffering. I spit on the people who did this, and I curse [[YourDaysAreNumbered the price I have to pay.]] But I'm making my peace with it, now you make yours. And go into that water. ''Because it must be done.''"

->I will never fully understand the notion of a suicide mission. For [[SocietyOfImmortals us]] it is relatively simple, entailing only [[BornAgainImmortality the considerable boredom of youth]] as its primary consequence. Certainly I regretted how likely it seemed that I was going to have to blow a hole in my own skull to escape the situation [[BavarianFireDrill I had so effectively talked myself into]], but by far the more intimidating prospect would have been capture and questioning, and I considered a few years' boredom to be infinitely preferable to that.
