Paul Sun-Hyung Lee: Uncle Iroh

Quotes 

• Aang : Why did the Fire Nation start this war?

  Uncle Iroh : Ah. Some people say it is within our nature to expand and consume like fire itself. Others believe that true stability in this world can only happen under our rule, so the drive to conquer is a drive for peace and unity.

  Uncle Iroh : But peace comes from respecting life, not killing and destroying.

  Uncle Iroh : A noble sentiment, Avatar, but in the end, for most of us, it doesn't matter how this war started. It only matters how it can end. And the belief is that by capturing you, the Fire Nation can finally bring that about.
