do you remember when Verbal was telling the story he heard of Kaiser Soze killing his own family because he believed that, in order to defeat his enemies, he had to be willing to do what they were not willing to do? do you tend to agree with this concept? it seemed to work for him. (wow, it's 7 a.m. where i am. be gentle)

Well that is what happes in everyones real life. Take the smallest example.. we need to take all the **** from who ever it is in the office to rise to the top.... or we may do some thing we may not be comfortable doing just to keep ourselves ahead in the race....
It happens all the times in every onese life... Killing may just be an extreme example.
Njoy....

If you go beyond your enemies and what they would do, you become worse than them and you deserve nothing. Yeah, it worked for Kaiser Soze, but at what cost? He lost his family, one could say he lost his soul and his own life in that moment. In that sense, did it really work for him? One could also say he was no longer a man, but a monster (although these days, sometimes you can't tell the difference). And you'd do well to remember that as good as it is, it's still just a movie. I wouldn't advise you to follow his example, even if you wouldn't go to such extremes, you should always hold on to what you cherish and makes your life whole, and you should never place personal gains above innocent lives. Career, money, fame, revenge, hatred and all that is nothing compared to the things in life that bring true happiness and make it worth living and meaningful.

Great comment Ricardo. I wanted to touch on it a bit from a slightly different perspective. I recently had an ephiphany, I was "Kaiser Soze"ed by someone real close to me. I am a calm, nice, giving person. Don't hurt people and do my best to be as meek as possible. This I found out can be a weekness. I had a "friend" who would do anything necessary to get what he wanted, but I was not too concerned since it was kept to a min involving me. Fast foward, I decided to help out a female friend by letting her stay with me to get out of an abusive relationship. She was so sweet and thankful. I was irrate at her previous boyfriends, all were "abusive" so I let her block people from contacting me. All part of her plan. I found out my previously mentioned friend n her consider themselves bro n sis, no relation tho. I blew it off. After she started being abusive to me I started poking around. Found out this is their m.o. Her bf's wernt abusive, it was her. She was emancipated from her only 2 daughters, she told me a much sappier story. Her mother has a restraining order on her. Her lies were getting worse. When she noticed I was on to her, she ran to a young boy(11 yrs younger) to start over. Already had him started I found out. I was used and hurt. But realized what its cost her. No family, no soul, and friendless. Only people like her will deal with her. Now instead of feeling vengeful twards him, I found out he's a good kid, imagine that, and he's being targeted too. I want to warn him but u might guess she blocked me n others off from writting/calling him n her too. These people are trying to ruin the good hearted and cant be tolerated. Knowing she is miserable inside is enough for her but I want to do more if i can to help stop these cancerous people from affecting others. Good people dont deserve this. A Kaiser Soze is a miserable person with small bits of enjoyment. You lose all thats good in your life and is not worth it. Any ideas r welcomed. Always forgive but never forget, "Be excelent to each other"_Bill&Ted.
