Prompt #26
"Any man who has the guts to sell his soul for love has the power to change the world."

Interesting. Perhaps not an entirely honourable sentiment, but a powerful proposition, I'm sure. Do I concur? No, I do not. As it is, I beg to differ most emphatically. For in my role as cardinal, I am held to extol the power of agape, of caritas, and not the kind of eros that prompts men to sell pertinent parts of themselves... such as their eternal soul. And as a condottiere, I can only laugh at such a statement; it's swords and cannons that change the world, bulls and treaties, red hot blood and red hot seal wax - not some lovelorn idiocy.

Come now, be rational.

The man who sells his soul for love falls first.
