Hoh. Maybe not when they have to rip out the heart themselves. But when a king taxes the people into starvation, does he not enjoy his power? And are those who suffer not being tortured? When someone edges out the competition, even if it means crushing their spirits, don't they feel triumphant? When a soldier slays the enemy, isn't he proud?

No, I know it isn't quite the same, but it's the same sort of thing. I'm a worse person than most but my sins are still that of a human.
