[Sabriel has accumulated a small collection of items- most of them books of Charter magic, requested from Viveca, but there are a few other objects as well- such as a dagger from Gyeonje, and several of the items she was recently given as gifts- including Itachi's own, placed next to Newton's book-lamp.]
And some things are more of a burden to know than they're worth- that is why some books are enchanted to alter the reader's memory, to suppress some knowledge unless it is truly needed.
But I'm not sure if the Clayr can shut themselves off from their Sight, any more than I can shut myself off from Death.
( hm. there are genjutsu traps that are similar, but it's an incredibly difficult thing to do. sometimes, the way odd parallels run intrigues him. )
No. Innate abilities are troublesome in that respect.
( he could choose not to use the sharingan, but what shinobi would fail in their duty of using every tool at their disposal to assure victory? he never could have accepted a life as a normal civilian, let alone as anything but an uchiha. )
( the word legacy is not without meaning to him. he is silent a moment, as if considering her words, and then he stands, gathers up the medical book. )
I should return to my quarters for the evening. Thank you for your time, Sabriel-san.

You can't exactly ignore them, even when they're unhelpful. And they're often attached to some form of legacy.
