"That is how it is with all choices. You never know what choice you will make until you are confronted with the choice. The stronger you become, the more you are able to choose that you were unable to before, and the more you learn about yourself with the choices you do end up making," his grandmother continued in a sagely tone. "Choices are an expression of one's self in that regard. They come from heart, mind, and soul. Words, on the other hand, are shallow and fickle. They mean nothing. They do not reflect who you truly. Actions speak louder than words. Power gives you the ability to act and thus, to know."
