A Quote by Jonathan Tucker
As a species, we're always seeking out authenticity. We're dying for authenticity. We smell it immediately, and we also smell even the slightest riff of somebody who's not completely true to who they are. We have that ability because, as a species, we have organized around stories. We tell them and we subscribe to them.

I think it makes him hungrier, especially when he guts them. Sick, but true. (Asmodeus)
