Where the west believes "I think, therefore I am", indigenous peoples say "I am, because we are." That is, we are all interconnected. We couldn't exist without all. - Duane Hirini

“You desire to LIVE "according to Nature"? Oh, you noble Stoics, what fraud of words! Imagine to yourselves a being like Nature, boundlessly extravagant, boundlessly indifferent, without purpose or consideration, without pity or justice, at once fruitful and barren and uncertain: imagine to yourselves INDIFFERENCE as a power - how COULD you live in accordance with such indifference? To live—is not that just endeavoring to be otherwise than this Nature? (Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil)

“I'm against nature. I don't dig nature at all. I think nature is very unnatural. I think the truly natural things are dreams, which nature can't touch with decay.”
― Bob Dylan

A person cannot make another happy, but he can make him unhappy. This is the main reason why there is more unhappiness than happiness in the world.

When you mention Batman, it reminds me of this quote:

"It is easier to travel. Tomorrow, I am gone. So if there is anybody who wants to kill me here, tomorrow I am gone. By the time he realizes, it is a poison gift, this Socratic tradition. So we kill Socrates because truth is unbearable. This is for the ones who still did not understand. Truth is unbearable, and most of our life we build expectations about who we would like to be. I would like to be batman. Well, and we start confusing what we want to be, with who we are. So if anybody asks you a question to check who you are and not want you want to be, this is unbearable, and you want to kill. And that is the reason for most divorces and most parents disappointed with their children."

"One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not agree that 'violence begets violence.' I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure — and in some cases I have — that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy."

"The purpose of the pistol is to stop a fight that somebody else has started, almost always at very short range."

"Bushido is all very well in its way, but it is no match for a 30-06."

”Notice too that while the bad things come without any effort, one has to strive to ward them off and attain the good things. Ignorance, for example, is effortless, but knowledge usually requires hard work.”

“Solitary confinement is one of the punishments most dreaded even by prisoners hardened to physical brutality, and is now a notorious procedure for inducing political compliance. (Conversely, the best of the known weapons against compliance is social organization.)”

“The attempt to define free will is the granddaddy of these pointless quests. We understand what it is to be coerced. It is to be a prisoner frog-marched down a hill. Coercion is something tangible. Freedom is the absence of coercion, nothing more." ― Martin E.P. Seligman

“The more I paid attention, the more I noticed just how often 'apathy,' 'lack of feeling,' and the word 'sociopath' were associated with evil.  Everywhere.  From celebrated books like East of Eden and The Sociopath Next Door to award-winning films like The Silence of The Lambs and American Psycho, the 'sociopath' character composite was almost exclusively reserved for the 'bad' guys (and girls).  These one-dimensional portrayals weren't limited to fiction, either.  Anytime there was a sensational crime that captured national attention, or a politician who displayed callous indifference for their constituents, even respected journalists would to jump to invoke a diagnosis of 'sociopathy.'  This despite having no training or qualifications to do so.”
