Kahless tells us that where your journey takes you is less important than who you are when you get there. Be true, warrior, and be glorious no matter your destination.

It is not possible to always be your best self. Life is complicated, and every day is full of challenges and compromises. But never forget that your best self is present, and strive to live up to it through it all.

Beware those who are good at both sucking up and punching down. Their loyalty is an illusion, but their cruelty is not. A true warrior licks no boots, nor uses theirs to step on others to get ahead.

To say we must face our fears is an empty cliche. Instead, we should study our fears, learn about them and from them. Then we do not just face our fears, we diminish them, until some are no longer fears at all.

Should you refuse to show compassion because you believe it would make you appear weak, then you have misunderstood what strength is. It is honorable to have concern for others, to show empathy and to offer aid to someone in distress. To rebuke this is cowardice, not strength.

We are adaptable, as individuals and as people. But that does not mean we must adapt to oppression, to inequality, to bigotry. Though we may be tempted to go along to get along, sometimes we must choose, as individuals, as people, to fight.

To derive pleasure from hatred is to revel in dishonor. A true warrior knows that hate is a source of misery, not of glee. Resist those who take delight in harming others, know hate when you see it, and may you forever feel the righteous joy of standing against it.

Your enemies are counting on you to lose hope. Despair is one of their greatest weapons, for it leads you to stop fighting for yourself. Hold on to hope, no matter how hard it is, and refuse to join your enemy in bringing you down.
