forsyth"...But a THIEF... a thief has no mother. A thief looks to no king. A thief can stand where others cannot! And this, amongst all the many powers the thinking beast can hold, is a power to be held in high respect. A true thief is intimidated neither by riches nor by high office, nor by sword or broad chest! A thief who gives into fear is not a thief at all! A true thief is afraod of no strength or rule, mortal or divine! For all strengths and rules opposing a thief are but stones in his path, to be mastered or avoided, or failing that, DIED upon!
...
..Following rules lets a man or woman or child acts in clear conscience regardless of what they do. So when a thief breaks those rules; when a thief chooses his own actions, any good or evil he causes is his alone to bear!"
From Thieves and Kings, Issue 6, the last part of the first collection. Seriously, go read it, folks. I found this comic long after I'd already started writing stuff for Fors, but that, and most of the whole speech I took it from, really sums up quite a bit of stuff pretty darn well.
