Quotes

[““I give myself to Your service. You are my life and my death. {He burrowed inside the rubble.} I am a man who walks alone and intervenes in matters that do not concern me. Blood was seeping from his gloves.””,”“Aren’t you tired of conferring your sick illusions of bastardized morals and ethics onto the rest of us? You and your kind can never know what we feel until you stand in our shoes, our squalor. Don’t you have any empathy; any compassion?””,”“People are going to use you. You’re going to use other people. The question is, for what, and for whom? choice is a double edged sword. }kicked over an old wastebasket,} You can decide who and what you want to be.””]
