Denied anything ardently desired, the individual or state will argue and parley just so long - then, if the impelling motive be sufficiently great, will cast aside every rule and break down every acquired inhibition, plunging viciously after the object wished; all the more fantastically savage because of previous repression.

I think Vandal Savage is really cool 'cause he has the ability not to die, and he's smart, but he doesn't have any gadgets; he doesn't shoot fire, and he doesn't fly. He's just old school, and I love that. He throws knives, and he fights, and that's it.
