Compassion

After reading a recent novel written by graham macneil called "Warriors of Ultramar"

in the novel the ultramarine captain of the forth company says " despite being space marines, the elite of humanity and the imperium, these imperial citizens are the true backbone of the imperium... they will have things that we never will despite the hardships faced in the galaxy... loved ones and familys... i want my warriors to respect that and show them compassion"
