“Because I fight back.”

“I’d like to thank my terrible childhood and the academy — in that order.”

“I’m very bad at giving up.”

“How can I submit tamely to disgrace seeing that the Persians are my maternal uncles and the Rum my parental uncles?”

“Ich habe das seit jeher für einen sehr schwierigen Beruf gehalten.”

“I never thought of losing, but now that it's happened, the only thing is to do it right.”
