Quotes
[edit]- Auschwitz, the meaning of pain
The way that I want you to die
Slow death, immense decay
Showers that cleanse you of your life
Forced in like cattle
You run stripped of your life's worth
Human mice, for the Angel of Death
Four hundred thousand more to die.- Jeff Hanneman, "Angel of Death", Reign in Blood (1986)
