My greatest wish for humanity is not for peace or comfort or joy. It is that we all still die a little inside every time we witness the death of another. For only the pain of empathy will keep us human. There's no version of God that can help us if we ever lose that.

Would the Thunderhead grieve our passing, I wonder? And if so, would it grieve as the child who has lost a parent, or as the parent who could not save a petulant child from its own poor choices?

We are wise but not perfect, insightful but not
all-seeing. We know that by establishing the Scythedom, we will be doing something very necessary, but we, the first scythes, still have our misgivings. [...] And if this experiment of ours fails, we have also embedded a way to escape it.
May the Thunderhead help us all, if we ever need that
escape.

I know how hard it is to imagine that what is now humanity's highest calling was once considered a crime. How small-minded and hypocritical mortal man was, for even as they despised the enders of life, they loved nature - which in those days, took every human life ever conceived.

I often wonder if the bright benefit of belief outweighed the darkness its abuse could bring.

"Therein lies the paradox of the profession," Faraday said. "Those who wish to have the job should not have it... and those who would most refuse to kill are the only ones who should. "

"You see through the facades of the world, Citra Terranova. You'd make a good scythe. "
Citra recoiled. "I'd never want to be one. "
"That," he said, "is the first requirement."
