after filling our bellies in his kitchen , he herded us out back , babbling merrily , `` shadows are n't always innocent , vegetarians are n't always sweet , not everyone enjoys killing , opposites inevitably attract , emotions can be destructive and deadly , never ask a favor from someone you do n't know , the dead stink , kill any bastard with silver skin , children are a true gift , with dark comes light , commoners can advance , dragons from children 's fairy tales are my favorite creature , time keeps moving , innocence does n't mean innocent , the mighty fall head over heels , and remember you 're young .
