Yeah, Profiler Robert Ressler used that quote in his book "whoever fights monsters"
Here is a very interesting one from the now executed serial killer David Gore;
"All of a sudden I realized that I had just done something that separated me from the human race and it was something that could never be undone, I realized that from that point on I could never be like normal people. I must have stood there in that state for 20 minutes. I have never felt an emptiness of self like I did right then and I never will forget that feeling. It was like I crossed over into a realm I could never come back from."
That sounds like a very harrowing realization -- being separated from what you are from the extent of what you've done. I imagine the most horrid thing that was plaguing his mind was guilt -- unmatched guilt and sorrow. If I was afflicted with those feelings, I would probably no longer wish to live.
Is it normal that I sometimes fantasize being a serial killer?
