To be feared

 


Gil: If you can’t be respected, be feared!


William: If possible, I’d rather look for a less savage environment. I appreciate civility. To be feared, I usually have to do bad things. I never forget Nietzsche:


"He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you."


I prefer to be civilized and live among civilized people where respect comes naturally.
