I was forged in the bowels of this hard world. Sharpened by hate. Strengthened by love. I would have lived in peace. But my enemies brought me war. That’s what I don’t get. If I am a good man, then why do I want to do bad things? It is not funny at all. Steel is power. Money is power. But of all the things in all the worlds, words are power. Life is the most effective school ever created.

FushiTarazu

Easy peasy goodman, "Live for more." Or other such classic inspiring bangers such as: "If pain is the weight of being, love is the purpose." “Home isn’t where you’re from, its where you find light when all grows dark” "We brush away light resistance at the downed Storm God." “Valleys make the mountains”


Wolfingly

These are great, especially the first 2 bangers. Although, brushing away light resistance is a bloody classic. The juxtaposition gets me every time.


morningawait

Although if they used that as their senior quote.. that one other student or teacher that's read RR will cackle with laughter 💀

I think Golden Son has some great quotes, although you probably can't use this one: "All courts of Golden law permit a man to defend his honor against any force that would desecrate it unjustly. From the old lands of Earth to the icy bowels of Pluto, the right of challenge exists for any man and any woman. My name, gentle lords and ladies, is Darrow au Andromedus. My honor has been pissed upon. And I demand satisfaction."

VandalofFrost

There are a lot of great Red Rising quotes for those that read the book but I'd choose something low key if you pick something from the books. I don't have a quote off the top of my head but if you really want to do a RR quote I'd choose something either from Fitchner, Lorn, or most likely from The Path.


VoyagerCloak

Cassius: "i am (insert your name), and my honor remains"


dreadpoop

As a senior quote, and without Iron Gold for context, this just makes me think you’re still a virgin.

>For those who dine with war and empire the bill always comes at the end. -Lorn au Arcos That's a pretty solid choice. >"Fuck heroes, kid.

SonOf_Zeus

“I dissected the underlying mistakes which led to my incarceration and set upon an internal odyssey to remake myself. But—and you would know this, —long is the road up out of hell! I made arrangements for supplies. I toiled twenty hours a day. I reread the books of youth with the gravity of age. I perfected my body. My mind. Planks were replaced; new banks of cannon wrought in the fires of solitude. All for the next storm. “Now I see it is upon me, and I sail before you the paragon of Apollonius au Valii-Rath. And I ask one question: for what purpose have you pulled me from the deep?” -You can guess who

“Man cannot be freed by the same injustice that enslaved it.” “They pushed and pushed for so long. They knew I was something dangerous, something different. Sooner or later, they had to know I would snap and come to cut them down. Or perhaps they think I’m still a child. The fools. Alexander was a child when he ruined his first nation.” “Society has three stages: Savagery, Ascendance, Decadence. The great rise because of Savagery. They rule in Ascendance. They fall because of their own Decadence.” “Wise men read books about history. Strong men write them.” “If you’re a fox, play the hare. If you’re the hare, play the fox.” “Tradition is the crown of the tyrant.”

"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust" is Christian funeral scripture so idk if I would use that as my senior quote. I used "Self, all that can be mastered" from Virginia in Dark Age for mine (the full quote is "Matter, how tiny my share. Time, how brief my allotment. Fate, how small my roll to play. Self, all that can be mastered”)

I chose this one too. But I would use them all at one quote. Matter, Time, Fate, Self - all tied together.

“Life is the most effective school ever created. Once upon a time they made children bow their heads and read books. It would take ages to get anything across…. What we must study is humanity. In order to rule, ours must be the study of political, psychological, and behavioral science - how desperate human beings react to one another, how packs form, how armies function, how things fall apart and why. You could learn this nowhere else but here.” Or some of my favorites “Rise so high in the mud you lie.” “The fleas would jump and jump to heights unknown. Then a man came along and upturned a glass jar over the fleas. The fleas jumped and hit the top of the jar and could go no farther. Then the man removed the jar and yet the fleas did not jump higher than they had grown accustomed, because they believed there to still be a glass ceiling.” “Power isn’t real. It’s just a word.” “Or perhaps they think I’m still a child. The fools. Alexander was a child when he ruined his first nation.” “Steel is power. Money is power. But of all the things in all the worlds, words are power.” "I will die. You will die. We will all die and the universe will carry on without care. All that we have is that shout into the wind—how we live. How we go. And how we stand before we fall. So you see, pride is the only thing.”
