Quotations:

“I’m begging you, Prince Zuko! It’s time for you to look inward and start asking yourself the big question: who are you and what do you want?” — Uncle Iroh

Uncle Iroh is a character in the animated series Avatar. One of the great characters of all time, Iroh was a celebrated member of the Fire Nation.

This quote is surprising because it’s not at all what one would expect from a member of the Fire Nation — a nation of action, honor, ambition. Certainly not such an accomplished warrior.

But Iroh is full of surprises — he appreciates the balance of all four elements, instead of only fire, and he prefers making tea to making war.

The quotation above is said with great passion and command. Here is a video so you can hear it for yourself, but be careful, I’m sending you off of epicswerve.com and I can’t protect you from spoilers! Seriously, this is a great show and you should watch it if you can!
