Each short story in the Course Books begins with a quote. This is that:
The Path to Ascension
- The Wings of a Dragon: “It is said that the best and fastest way to deal with someone who is suicidal is to start actively trying to kill them. Self-preservation is a tough habit to kick, and like any addiction the withdrawal symptoms can be deadly if not treated properly. It is one thing to take a cowardly jump off a cliff and end it all. In that situation you have total control of where and, more or less, when you are going to die. But in a situation where you are being attacked or chased, that basic fight-or-flight survival instinct kicks in, and forces the would-be statistic to re-think their decision and, more often than not, realize they really do want to live.”
- Through the Night: “We live, we die, we fight. Life is a journey, the destination is what you make of yours.”
- Disarming: “No, cut the red wire!”
- Wildfire Emerges: “Like a storm of swords, fire shall rain down upon my enemies.”
- Ulysses Last Stand: “Stand like a stone wall; never give up, never surrender. Show your enemies what it means to be Gung Ho.”
- The Sun Also Rises: “As the sun sets, it also rises.”
