“The saintlier a person appears, the more the devil thrives within, pulsating through their veins, ceaselessly vying for control over their mind, body, and spirit. It's not solely about who they appear to be or what they conceal deep inside; it's about the person poised at the threshold of these two realms, weathering storms from both sides. Continuously battling, they strive to maintain sanity and uphold their character amidst the tempest.”

“If a man gets his hands red with the blood of the innocent and he is conscious of this fact; he either spends the rest of his life in utter damnation and guilt or he commits further wreck still. He is a threat to the society as it stands. If such a person works hard, catches upon opportunity, is cunning, and has luck by his side he would turn the tables on the people. He sells massacre at the market, and he hangs and rips people apart in squares. To be born rich and powerful becomes a tragedy and for the first time, poverty is beautiful and desired. You won’t find poor, hardworking, grinding workers broken easily, they are resilient, but the rich and elite, become agitated at the first instance of discomfort. The man who took innocent lives to better his position becomes the devil that haunts the elite and the few days they do get to spend are equal to a whole life full of the misery of the slaves they made of others.”
