User:Rez/Benton Manzanera

"I worked as an assassin for years on end, it was never numbing. One guy cries for his life after the next, it really made you realize how important and sacred life is. Life is priceless, it takes so much care and time to make and finish. Unlike a building, once a life is lost, it is gone forever. Killing is only justified as a last resort."
