The Fat Red Line
There are times in life when you have to strike a delicate balance between two very tempting extremes.
Killing, is a good example. For you see, son, if you strangle several people in 1970's Boston, people will label you as a murderer, a mere serial killer. Vaporize 2 million with the power of the atom, however, and you earn the title 'Conqueror'.
But you gotta know when to slow down: If you look back, and you're glimpsing the 8 hundred billion mark, you may have taken it a little bit too far.
