Heinkel: There’s something else you should know: I volunteered. The very first round of experiments, and I offered myself up to be a guinea pig…

…because I hoped it would “fix” me. I wanted these powers to make my body grow into whatever shape it was supposed to have. Not because I felt uncomfortable in it, either. Only because the rest of the world told me that I needed to be “normal”.

That’s who I am, Timothy: so caught up in the opinions of others that I risked my health and life to appease them. Is that really the kind of person you want as a role model?
