“People aren't like that. They aren't content to just live simple lives that don't hurt anyone. There's always this kind of undercurrent in people driving them forward to either good things or really bent, gnarled things. It's not that they just wake up one day and decide to start a fight. This kind of thinking is just building up in them all the time, like the tick of a clock, like the beat of a heart, it's the rhythm they think their thoughts to. Selflessness, courage, honor - these things are strange and unintelligible to them as evil and cruelty are to you.”
