Verfasst: 17.12.2013 00:39
"Spare me your false words, Prophet. I can tell that you judge me ... You deem me selfish, hungry for power and driven by greed. You think that all of the poverty in the Undercity is due to my decisions. But there is a fundamental flaw in your thinking, Prophet... You're idealistic.
Yes... you still believe in a vision of a world free and beautiful, where none are starving, a world liberated from wars and violence... But you're chasing an illusion. Both prosperity and satiety can only exist where there are poverty and hunger. And only those who bore witness to violence and wars can appreciate the privilege of safety and peace. And every one of those living down there, every single of of them, they have all been unfortunate enough to have been born on the painful side of the scale, which is needed to maintain stability! Make everyone rich, and they'll do everything in their power to recreate poverty among themselves. Make everyone poor, and they will gut themselves for a loaf of bread... This is the truth, as bitter as it may taste.
And you,you would do better to accept that. Bid your delusional phantasies farewell... Because all idealists I have gotten to know ended up doing more harm than they did good."
