" Behold, Arthur, young Knights. If you so choose, they may someday be yours to lead, just as your father before you."
"I'm to be their commander?!"
"Yes. But with this title comes a sacred responsibility; to protect. To defend. To value their lives above your own. Should they perish in battle, to live your life gloriously, in honor of their memory."
"And what of their free will?"
"It is always fallen to a few to sacrifice for the good of many. The world isn't a perfect place. But, perhaps people like you, Arthur, and me, and them, can make it so."
An excerpt from King Arthur between Arthur and Pelegus ( my spelling of the names may be just a little off!) :)
Kinda like us, huh? Taking charge of Marines brings the same responsibility. I just wish some ppl would take notice that this can also apply to other areas of life. If you are in charge of others, make sure to place them first. :)
