"you must wonder what makes a man do things like this.  Well, I wonder too.  And the answer is, I don't know... but I think that within me, within every human being, there is a certain weakness. It is a weakness that exposes itself more when you're alone.  And I have figured out that part of the reason I do the things I do, and cannot seem to conquer that one word --myself--is because... is because... I am a coward."
