“Let us not curse the darkness, let us kindle little lights.”
“You all oughta be ashamed of yourselves. A bunch of big guys like you, pickin’ on a poor little orphan like him. Socially he’s washed up! Aw, but what’s the use of talkin’ to you cold-hearted boids? Go ahead! Have your fun! Laugh at him! Kick him now that he’s down! Go on! We don’t care.”
“Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Reeds driftin’ on by, you know how I feel
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good”
“Who ever said that pleasure wasn’t functional?”
“I feel refreshed... renewed... but the plague still grips me. Not to worry, I am still eternally grateful that you went to such lengths for me, a complete stranger. ”
