"What happens while you are gai'shain cannot be held against you" (To Faile; Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 2)
"We cannot follow a false Car'a'carn and a wetlander at that, but perhaps we will be allowed to live out our lives in our own holds. We think on it. We have been away from home a long time and these Shaido sicken us (Knife of Dreams, Chapter 5).
