->I don't feel I have to wipe everybody out, Tom. Just my enemies.

->What a perfect asshole.

->"Victims?" Don't be melodramatic. Look down there. Tell me, would you really feel any pity if one of those dots stopped moving forever? If I offered you twenty thousand pounds for every dot that stopped, would you really, old man, tell me to keep my money, or would you calculate how many dots you could afford to spare?

->You never did anything for anyone unless you could see what was in it for you.

->The socialists go on about your comrades, your class, your union, and society. Fuck all that shite. The Tories go on about your employer, your country, your family. Fuck that even mair.

->[[LetNoCrisisGoToWaste Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder.]] Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse.

->I'm a man of my word... if I feel like it.

->The only side [[MagnificentBastard Ben]] is on is his own.

->I am the most important thing in creation. Do what you want, but never get caught. Conscience is for angels. Evil for evil's sake. Vice is its own reward. The sinner enjoys his life. Evil is just a word. Others envy my freedom and life without conscience.
