The thing that reaches for the money the morning after it is caught is not a person who made a mistake.

It is a person for whom the money is simply the point, always, past every obstacle, without embarrassment or hesitation, and who will keep reaching for it until something with the force of law physically stops her hand.

Mercy, with a person like that, is not kindness.

It is just another door left unlocked.

I did not leave any more doors unlocked.
