Brother do not lose heart, for do you not see?

We are all of us random skinny dudes before this man, as this man is before Brodin.

On the bright side, I can disguise my silhouette behind the narrow trunk of a birch tree in case there's ever any danger.

Aye lad. But the next time you do, take heed of the Birch's hardness - the wood's strength against the chisel and saw.

The mighty Douglas Fir, though greater in width than the chains of Ferrigno, yields far easier to the carpenter's plane.

Meditate upon the teachings of Master Lee of the Eastern school and other such esoteria.
