    * “They had a choice‚ all of them. They could have followed in the footsteps of good men like my father‚ or President Truman. Decent men‚ who believed in a day’s work for a day’s pay.

Don’t tell me they didn’t have a choice.” –Rorschach 1.1 * “because there is good and there is evil‚ and evil must be punished. Even in the face of Armageddon I shall not compromise

I agree with this quote‚ because there are many real life situations that can prove it‚ along with the situations portrayed in most literary works.
