Between an empty doll and one that has only learned evil, which is the more pathetic one? Neither is particularly appealing, if I am honest.

Where my own capacity is concerned, I'm more than aware of my own failings. But I have chosen to follow the path that's been set out for me. In order to be the best of that which I must be, I made the sacrifices that were necessary.

But choosing to sacrifice aspects of my humanity, such as capacity for empathy or kindness, doesn't mean I've forgotten them entirely, or that I lack perspective on them in others.

That is the difference, in my view.
