When you were younger, the default state is all you preach.

As you grow older, you start to wonder if the default state is all that good.

After you've gathered enough experience, you'd actively try to stray from the default state besides a few values that are core to you.

So ethics matter far less to me these days, as long as I know that the values that remain true to me remain true.

If Wendis finds peace by torturing Estavan, a person who'll get lines of people stretching for days just to take a stab at him, I wouldn't stop her. Because ultimately, my goal is for her to find peace, and that goal is good, just like how some controversial acts are committed under the name of greater good.
