Ra's al Ghul: I was 11 years old when I killed my first man. I remember the look in his face when the light went out behind his eyes. Such a sudden change, almost imperceptible, between life and death. And I felt ashamed. I had stolen from that man the most precious gift of all - life. But I also felt something else - pride, because I had taken up arms against someone who sought to do ill against my family. And I realized what I had done was necessary. You see... I have replaced evil with death. And that... is what the league exists to do. And I have killed several thousand more men since then. And the world is better for it.
Oliver Queen: You've taken your last life.
Ra's al Ghul: No. You have lived your last day

I was 11 years old when I killed my first man

00:00:06.773 --> 00:00:10.175

I remember the look in his face

00:00:10.177 --> 00:00:12.978

when the light went out behind his eyes

00:00:12.098 --> 00:00:16.214

Such a sudden change

00:00:16.216 --> 00:00:19.151

almost imperceptible

00:00:19.153 --> 00:00:22.154

between life and death

00:00:22.156 --> 00:00:23.688

And I felt ashamed

00:00:23.069 --> 00:00:25.039

I had stolen from that man

00:00:25.392 --> 00:00:27.058

the most precious gift of all

00:00:27.999 --> 00:00:28.096

life

00:00:28.962 --> 00:00:32.664

But I also felt something else

00:00:32.666 --> 00:00:35.002

pride

00:00:35.202 --> 00:00:37.202

because I had taken up arms against someone

00:00:37.204 --> 00:00:39.805

who sought to do ill against my family

00:00:39.807 --> 00:00:44.743

And I realized what I had done was necessary

00:00:44.745 --> 00:00:46.545

You see

00:00:46.547 --> 00:00:50.549

I had replaced evil with death

00:00:52.418 --> 00:00:53.752

And that

00:00:53.754 --> 00:00:57.656

is what the League exists to do

00:00:57.658 --> 00:01:00.659

And I have killed several thousand more men since then

00:01:02.261 --> 00:01:04.999

And the world is better off for it

00:01:04.011 --> 00:01:07.003

You've taken your last life

00:01:07.998 --> 00:01:08.679

No

00:01:08.681 --> 00:01:10.748

You have lived your last day

00:01:10.075 --> 00:01:13.684

We are ready

00:01:15.788 --> 00:01:18.456

I am envious of you

00:01:18.458 --> 00:01:20.825

You will see her before I do

00:01:23.999 --> 00:01:26.497

Fight me boy

00:01:28.167 --> 00:01:30.101

You're unnarmed

00:01:30.999 --> 00:01:33.304

I'll take your blades from you once you are through with them
