What did Doctor Doom really want? He wanted to rule the world. Now, think about this. You could walk across the street against a traffic light and get a summons for jaywalking, but you could walk up to a police officer and say "I want to rule the world," and there's nothing he can do about it, that is not a crime.

You can't process it because it doesn't fit with what came before or what comes afterward. A friend of mine, a soldier, put it this way.
