Question #2 answer

I don't believe most people naturally want to be good. Zaroff was one of those kind of people. He couldn't be swayed into thinking what he was doing was wrong, or inhuman. He thought what he was doing was good and not evil. He said something about the weak cannot hang with the strong. People can be pretty crazy. Montresor was a little crazy as well, he didn't think of himself as an evil person, he was insulted by Fortunato and wanted to get revenge by killing him. You can't stop people like him and get them to change their minds.
I see people that are like Zaroff and Montresor. I heard about some guy on the news that killed two people because he thought it was the right thing to do, because they were weak or weren't like him and thought they needed to be removed from the world. When people are pushed around or think what they do is right, it's like they have tunnel vision, you can't get their attention off of it.
