“It's not easy to kill a man and walk away from it. Every time you kill, a little piece of you dies. Kill often enough, and though you still may talk and eat and breathe, you're a walking dead man your ownself.”
Buck Fletcher in Showdown at Two-Bit Creek; Cited in: Joseph A. West (2004) Ralph Compton, Showdown at Two-Bit Creek, p. 103
