It's also the truth- otherwise people wouldn't be jailed for life or executed. Instead they'd be "changed". It also works in a colloquial sense- you can't change Rick unless he wants to change, which he obviously does not.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
