"Why? Why have you done this? [Altaïr: Men must be free to do what they believe. It is not our right to punish one for thinking what they do, no matter how much we disagree.] Then what? [Altaïr: You of all people should know the answer. Educate them. Teach them right from wrong. It must be knowledge that frees them, not force.] They do not learn, fixed in their ways as they are. You are naïve to think otherwise. It's an illness, for which there is but one cure. [Altaïr: You're wrong. And that's why you must be put to rest.] Am I not unlike those precious books you seek to save? A source of knowledge with which you disagree? Yet you're rather quick to steal my life. [Altaïr: A small sacrifice to save many. It is necessary.] Is it not ancient scrolls that inspire the Crusaders? That fill Salāḥ ad-Dīn and his men with a sense of righteous fury? Their texts endanger others, bring death in their wake. I too, was making a small sacrifice. It matters little now. Your deed is done, and so am I."
