“I'm not a talking tree. But, you know, a good friend of mine once told me..., that just because people treat you like a villain..., or an ogre..., or just some loser..., it doesn't mean you are one. The thing that matters most...,is what you think of yourself. If there is something you really want..., or someone you really want to be..., then the only person standing in your way... is you.”
―Arthur inspiring villains to being something else
