( Anders isn't watching the memory so much as he's just looking at it and thinking. Hawke spared him his life. Anders is still having a hard time coming to grips with that, especially when Sebastian stepped in and threatened to destroy Kirkwall if Hawke didn't stick a knife in him. Is his life really worth all that? )

At least you're able to recognize that what you did was wrong. That makes you better than the average cold blooded killer.
