Michael J. Sullivan Quote

Believing the worst of people, of the world in general, was a trap too easy to fall into. Hadrian had fought beside soldiers who'd developed similar views. Such men saw evil and virtue as concepts of naïveté. In their minds, there was no such thing as murder, an killing was just something you did when circumstances warranted.A terrible way to live. What good is a world - what is the point of living - if generosity and kindness are myths?
