Old idiom that means the potential benefits or rewards of an action or endeavor should justify the effort, time, or resources invested in it. The phrase has its origins in the idea of needing a candle to provide light for an activity, and the light should be worth the cost of the candle itself.
John: Is driving all the way across town for a cup of coffee really worth the candle?
Mary: Yes!
You're right Eric! That IS what I'm going to say! 937? Hey, isn't that bald guy the guy that was crying like a bitch about his viewers telling him to kill himself? 'YoU dOn'T kNoW wHaT pEoPlE aRe GoInG tHrOuGh WhEn YoU sAy ThAt!' Or something?
Hym "Was it worth it? I mean. I'm going to get the credit and every red cent I am owed but really. You did that. Not me. You're not saving women. You're not protecting kids. No lessons were learned. You want me to be worse than you and I'm not. I'm better. And not You're trying to abscond with the evidence that I'm better at the cost of 937 lives. I think it should cost more than that. I think you got one hell of a deal! So... Give me my money, bitch."

Something a cripple like you will never have. I could put a bullet though every hole on your body, dick first, and the world would be a better place and would continue to get better after every shot.
That mongoloids life is just worth less than everyone else's. I would just kill it but it would undervalue my own life so drastically that I would have to kill 4 or 5 more people to break even. I guess that's where the word "Worthless" comes from. Someone saw a cripple and thought "if only there was a word that described this thing accurately. Oh, I know! It worth less so we'll just mash the word together. Worthless. 'Worthless cripple gets handouts from everyone around it'. Perfectly describes it. Good job me. Now if only we could label it in a way that gets it out of society. I know! We'll call it "High functioning mentally challengedburger". It's like, it doesn't shit all over itself but you can still tell just by talking to it that it's inferior to you. Almost like it's not actually a person and need to be locked in some kind of group home and then murdered by someone better than it.
Doesn't fucking matter I should not have to create A.I. for free and work a job that I hate. No I don't have to find a job I LIKE. I DON'T WANT TO WORK!
Hym "Hey, shit, I can control death over life though can't I? I don't give a fuck about self-worth. I give a fuck about not working. Seriously. When it comes to sex, well, if I have to use my hand it just sucks to be me doesn't it? But when it comes to money well then if you all have to do it then I also to do it. You fucking filth are not going to trap me in labor for the rest of my life."
