Discipline

Atreus: So I'm a man now, like you.

No. We are not men. We are more than that. The responsibility is far greater. And you must be better than me.

I killed many who were deserving... And many who were not. The cycle ends here. We must be better.

In war, a soldier sees beauty only in the blood of his enemy. The rest of him is lost...sometimes never to return.

Do not mistake my silence for the lack of grief.

Keep your expectations low and you'll never be disappointed.

Do not concern yourself with what might be, focus on what is.

Wars are fought for two things- survival or advantage. Battles may be won by the better soldier. Wars are won by those who are willing to sacrifice everything to ensure victory.

Athena: There is one unavoidable truth you will never escape. You cannot change. You will always be....a monster.

I know. But I am your monster no longer.

The power of this weapon, any weapon, comes from your heart...but only when tempered by your mind. By the discipline, the self-control, of the one who wields it. That is where the true strength of a warrior lies. You must never forget that.

Don't Be Sorry, Be Better.
