But surely the same can be said of refugees. What good is doing anything if you are always thinking of the mud and shit to come?
A man who has been so discouraged from living--truly living!--should not be thinking so dismally of dogs or men or anyone at all. He should be excited for the opportunities to bathe whatever dogs might come his way.
And to think--I have always wanted to be a mage. If only I'd known of such strict rules, I would have been praising Andraste night and day for not giving me magic. Then again, perhaps it is Andraste that causes such confusions after all. Brothers of the Chantry are similarly encouraged toward celibacy.
Of course, they do not always obey. Mages of the Circle do not take these risks and delights in the forbidden pleasures? I have always found that the more forbidden something is, the more delightful it is. A very happy relationship between the two.

[this is like some high-caliber philosophy.]
