**This is a very simple mechanism.  As soon as you let hope into your heart, living in an imperfect present becomes unbearable.  You doom yourself to the struggle for a happy future.  A fight you can lose.**
###  Cynicism is much easier.  Keeping your heart locked, you always leave yourself the opportunity to be content with what you have. 
 **It is easy to say that this cruel world suits you when you cannot even think of a happy and good world.  It is easy to say that it doesn’t hurt you at all when you didn’t even dream of living without pain.**

*Anyone who allowed himself to openly set ideals above his own benefit, forever enrolled in the ranks of the forces of good.  It sounds pathetic, but there is no turning back.*

 <code>You become an eccentric.  They will scoff at you, they will reproach you, they will forever accuse you of duplicity.</code>
 
 **"If you are so kind, why didn’t you do it this and this?" 
 "You speak of compassion, but you..." 
"You see, you had to be tougher to prevent this from happening."**
##  Do not be afraid.  Good does not fight to win.  Good fights so that evil does not conquer.
