De var faste i troen på, at alle, der ikke var med dem, var imod dem. [..] 'Jeg så mig selv som en frihedskæmper i en kamp for mig og mine venner. Hver for sig var vi svage individer. Men når vi stod sammen, blev vi en stærk helhed. ↗

He wanted to keep her for life. He wished that moment would last forever, but it was too late. ↗

«If you'll choose to help your love, you'll sow death and suffering among the people with whom you live. You will be hated, you will be weak and vulnerable. And after living without a purpose, you will die. Alone, how you should have been.» ↗
