They say you can know a man by his enemies, Dresden. He smiled, and laughter lurked beneath his next words, never quite surfacing. You defy beings that should cow you into silence. You resist forces that are inevitable for no more reason than that you believe they should be resisted.

Changes: A Novel of the Dresden Files, p.136, Penguin
