Amazon and Magic:
“Almost every human culture has something like angels in their mythology.”
“I wonder which came first, us or the legends?”
“I don’t.”
“Why not?”
“Do you want to be the product of some human’s overactive imagination?”
Rose and Joseph:
“Don’t even start. You’d believe anything if someone told you it was God’s word.”
“I’m faithful, not blind. Willfully or otherwise.”
“I’m not blind. I just know what’s real.”
“What’s real and what’s true don’t have to be the same thing.”
“That’s what real means.”
“What’s real is that we’re indistinguishable from anyone else. What’s true is that they fly from us.”
“Odd pheromones, or some superstition among -”
“That’s neither real nor true.”
“I won’t believe it’s some supernatural… curse, or something.”
“You don’t have to.”
Rela and SingKueh:
“One day you’re gonna die too. Everybody does.”
“I don’t plan to leave anyone in my wake.”
“Best start reversing engines now, that’s so. ‘S not just me you’ll leave.”
“I won’t even leave you. You’ll go out long before I do. Gloriously.”
“I’m not ‘Tatsu.”
“No one is. But you’re the same.”
“’Cept I still have something to live for.”
