Rise of the Morningstar quotes about time

We stay the same as we’ve always been, keeping to the path we’ve walked our whole lives. Paths that carry so much importance and perceived stability that we are utterly convinced it is the only one to walk – that anyone not walking it with us is being misled.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Seek counsel; though we are all skilled and experienced in many ways, no one can experience all that life has to offer in the limited time we are given in this world.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Time doesn’t always heal all wounds.

The power of an idea is never to be underestimated. Many a thought has survived long after its host has ceased to be. It is the power of an idea that no shield can defend against, nor sword divide, nor poison infect. As such, we must aspire to create ideas, rather than preserve life. In a sense, this is how we achieve true immortality and live on past our time.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Love is not a purpose, it’s a paradox; it’s not an end-goal, it’s an auxiliary fuel source to help get there.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Our lives consist of a series of internal battles, deep within us, where weapons don’t exist and technology is unable to create devices that better the best of yesterday. Our knowledge is our only defense; caution, our only friend.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Love is one of the most motivating and self-defining forces in our lives, whether we turn from it or allow ourselves to be drawn to it. If you allow romantic possibilities with others to consume all your time and energy, they will distract you from the things of interest that fill your life with passion and purpose.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Your biggest dreams can become reality, not by brute-forcing the end-goal, but breaking it down into smaller, more manageable parts. If your goal takes years, breaking it down into months and days will let you improve your lot little bits at a time.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Our knees get dusty from time to time, but when they touch the ground, we must never allow the dust to convince us that our submission in that moment is the acceptance of our defeat for an entire lifetime.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Sometimes to submit is to know you have a life worth living for a higher purpose, worth seeing through.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Despite our human intelligence, we are very much like our friends in the wild; the world we live in is a survival of the fittest. But to this I say, let the fittest survive! Survival is overrated. We’re alive; we die. How long we survive for is of little significance. Our true significance lies not in the endless comparing of ourselves to one another, trying to see who is the fittest, using scales of evaluation and meaning that differ in the heart and mind of every individual; no – it lies in our deeds alone with the time we have.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


When you’re looking for a needle in a haystack, don’t afraid to burn the haystack to save yourself from spending half your life picking through strands of straw.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Trust is not a gasoline-soaked blanket that succumbs to the matches of betrayal, never able to be used for its warmth again; it’s a tapestry that wears thin in places, but can be patched over if you have the right materials, circumstances, and patience to repair it. If you don’t, you’re always the one who feels the coldest when winter comes.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


The weakest link in any chain of security is not the technology itself, but the person operating it; iron gates have no compassion to appeal to, nor fears to exploit, nor insecurities to use to one’s advantage. They are, however, operated by us – by beings of unlimited vulnerability and limited energy. Why waste time brute-forcing what can be easily circumvented by a clever façade and a crimson tongue?

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Anything you don’t want to deal with can always be written off as being “in the past” and ignored, but in doing so, you sweep it under a rug where it doesn’t go away with time – it becomes time itself, and takes on the illusion of life as we think we know it.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


It’s true what they say, that words are the true weapons. Those who fight with steel are limited to the strength of their arm, the reach of their blade, and the timing of their strike; but those who fight with persuasion know no limits – not time, nor status, nor chance.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Sometimes we exist long enough to lead the next generation; other times, only to plant a seed and let its resonations of our time here on Earth ripple into new waves.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


What you withhold in this life will be withheld from you in the next.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Remain open-minded, even when you believe yourself to be a king among peasants. You never know what blessings can be gained or crises averted just by listening.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


It is unwise to waste in thought what could be earned and secured in action.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


The most inefficient and self-harming thing a person can do is go out looking for love. Let it find you when the time is right and you’re out doing what you love to do. Only then will you find it in its truest form.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


We’re all blurry-eyed wanderers of time, and the unfortunance of it all is that we’d probably all go on to do great things if only we searched for what corrected and focused our vision instead of relying on our past – life’s grand kaleidoscope – to help us find our way forward.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


The older you get, the faster time passes in your mind, so use your time according to what is most important.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Why spend your life working on defense when no defense can be made truly impenetrable? Take the offensive – learn the vulnerabilities of the world around you and be the change you wish to see rather than living in constant fear of what may happen to you instead.

— A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar


Sometimes you just have to know when the battle you’re fighting is one best walked away from, than fought to the cold, bitter end.
