"I am telling you, trouble is like the ocean. It covers two thirds of the world."
Didn't I tell you that the darkness would not last forever?

"What is an adventure? That depends on where you are starting from. Little girls in your country, they hide in the gap between the washing machine and the refrigerator and they make believe they are in the jungle, with green snakes and monkeys all around them.

You live in a world of machines and you dream of things with beating hearts. We dream of machines, because we see where beating hearts have left us."
