Fear is no crime. But acting from fear is. Know that you're going to lose everything one day, whether you fear to lose it or not.
~ Adam Burch
The ability to kill someone doesn't make you a leader, and it doesn't make someone great. There's nothing great about dying or taking a life.
Humanity's savageness is what makes it civilized. Technology, trade, computers, space travel. All are products of competition and conflict.
Every time there was conquest, it brought trade, new ideas, and inventions. They made civilization evolve to new heights. Humans soar on the wings of our violent nature. There's no other way.
You expect to shut that feeling away? No, I ask that you feel it more. There's no other way to stand over your enemy and cut out his heart. Accept your hatred and you won't be rash or stupid, you'll be cold. Don't quiet the storm. Become the storm.
Blind risk is stupid, but calculated risks are worth taking.
