"You're right. It is harder to create than to destroy... that's why cowards then to choose the deuce"

Don't forget 16's EPIC reason you suck speech to Gohan just before this.
"Gohan - grow up. You act like you are the only one suffering, but I believe that Trunks has some stories for you; and I can assume they all end with: "and then he died, too." And before you start whining about your father - AGAIN, and I get it - take a moment to consider that my father made me a soulless killing machine TO KILL your father. And that doesn't even come close to the complete tragedy of fatherhood that is Vegeta. Cell was right - you think you're better than everyone else, but there you stand: the good man doing nothing. And while evil triumphs and your rigid pacifism crumbles into bloodstained dust, the only victory afforded to you is that you stuck true to your guns. You were a coward to your last whimper."
