Quote by Caleb Carr
I get in trouble when I say things like, Im attracted to violence.

I get in trouble when I say things like, Im attracted to violence. I was a pretty angry kid, and I got into military history largely as a way to vent my own anger. As I got older it narrowed down to a more specific focus on individual violence. Im just trying to understand where it came from. – Caleb Carr
