Chuck PalahniukThere are worse things you can do to people you love than kill them.
About This Quote
This quote shows the fact that there are worse things you can do to people you love than kill them because you could actually hurt them for life. When someone is killed, they are gone forever. They have no more pain to feel. If you can hurt someone for life, even if it takes years to heal, then the pain they felt before is nothing in comparison to the pain they will feel in the future.
