"The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask."
"We fear violence less than our own feelings. Personal, private, solitary pain is more terrifying than what anyone else can inflict."
"Violence isn't always evil. What's evil is the infatuation with violence."
- James Douglas Morrison
