I like to savor the unwrapping of my presents. You clearly just rip off the paper.” “Well, when I know what’s waiting for me underneath is something I really want, why wait?” Knight said.

He looked at his dead brother and then back at the knight. “Who the hell are you?” He asked once more. The knight was still silent. Every step the knight took, the general took a step back.
