William Shakespeare
Be an Executioner. Act on thought as soon as it comes. Either eliminate the cause or do it.
To be an executioner is to bear the weight of both judge and jury, to take upon oneself the burden of carrying out the ultimate act of justice. It is not a task for the faint of heart, for it requires a steely resolve and a clear conscience. To act on thought as soon as it comes is to show courage in the face of uncertainty, to trust in one's instincts and intuition. The executioner must be swift in their actions, decisive in their choices, for hesitation can lead to doubt and uncertainty. Either eliminate the cause or do it, for there is no room for half-measures in the world of the executioner. They must be resolute in their purpose, unwavering in their commitment to justice. But what of the morality of such actions? Is it truly just to take the life of another, even in the name of justice? These are questions that weigh heavily on the mind of the executioner, for they must grapple with the consequences of their actions. They must consider the impact of their choices, the ripple effect that their decisions will have on the world around them. Yet, in the end, they must trust in their judgment, in their ability to discern right from wrong, good from evil. And so, the executioner stands at the crossroads of morality and justice, a solitary figure tasked with carrying out the will of the people. They bear the weight of their decisions with dignity and grace, knowing that they act not out of malice or revenge, but out of a sense of duty and honor. For to be an executioner is to embody the ultimate paradox of human existence - the ability to take a life in order to preserve justice and order. And so, they must steel themselves for the task ahead, knowing that they carry out their duty with the heaviest of hearts, but with the firm belief that they are serving a greater purpose.
