A woman that can be bought isn’t worth having.
Emotion can turn the most circumspect of men careless.
You can build a prison of stone and steel, but you merely present the prisoner with a challenge. Any truly determined man will find a way out. But love, love is the perfect prison. Inescapable.
Even the best of men can be deceived by their true nature.

I’m not cruel for the sake of cruelty.
I am not here to threaten you. I’m here to kill you.
