Popular Dialogues

"Rahim: My job is to make sure he dies instantly. Make sure there's no pain. In some countries they use the short drop. It's pitiful, you know. The guy really suffers. They'll let him struggle for 30 minutes until he turns blue and soils his pants before he dies. But here, we are humane. We make sure it is quick and painless. The perfect job is when we fracture between the second and third vertebrae. This spot here. Can you feel it? When he drops, you will hear a 'crack!' And that's it. He stops moving. His heart stops. Everything stops. His soul is gone, just like that. The score for that? 10/10."

"Rahim: Principles are important. Rahim: Those who have principals, they become leaders. Rahim: The others who hide behind the rules, they are merely followers."
