"I want the freedom to carve and chisel my own face, to staunch the bleeding with ashes, to fashion my own gods out of my entrails."
And while that's a freeing feeling, it's also a really scary feeling. Terrifying, actually.
Also, that is my absolute favorite part of Watchmen, that whole scene with Jon, and experiencing the way he experiences time. So eternal and beautiful, and yet heartbreaking. (<--is also a massive comic book geek and once managed a shop for three years)
