Life Is A Struggle, From The Agonies

There Is A Darkness In You. In All Of Us, Probably. Beasts We Keep Chained. Ordinary Men Have To Keep The Chains Strong, For If We Let The Beast Loose Then Society Will Turn Upon Us With Fiery Vengeance. Kings Though...well, Who Is There To Turn Upon Them? So The Chains Are Made Of Straw. It Is The Curse Of Kings, Helikaon, That They Can Become Monsters. And They Invariably Do.

Bow To Nothing, Son. I Make Mistakes As Well As Any Man. If You Think Me Wrong, Be So Good As To Damn Well Say So.

You Do Not Convince Me. You Rationalize Your Actions And Because The Result Is Favorable You Become Right.

Yours Is A Race Whose Imagination Is Limited To Its Own Small Appetites. Greed, Lust, Envy - These Are The Motivating Forces Of Humankind. What Redeems You Is That In Every Man And Woman There Is A Seed That Can Grow To Encompass Love, Joy And Compassion. But This Seed Is Never Allowed To Prosper In Fertile Ground. It Struggles For Life Among The Rocks Of Your Human Soul.

You Know How It Is. Boy Meets Girl, Girl Wants Boy Dead. An Everyday Story, Really.
