The reason I understand your problem so well is that I walked into the same trap myself. Yeah. First day we got here I started thinking, maybe I could put my gun away. Settle down, get a little land, raise some cattle. The things these people know about me would work to my credit, it wouldn't work against me. I... just didn't want you to think you were the only sucker in town.

Once you begin you've got to be ready for killing and more killing, and then still more killing, until the reason for it is gone.

There's no need to apologize. We weren't expecting flowers and speeches.
