Quotes by Howard Buten (?)

“Rain says a noise: shh. You can hear it when it comes down. It is God telling us to be quiet.”

“He is a human being in kid's clothing. He has the organs and the feeling of his species, but none of the rights. And he is not alone. This country is stewing itself in the notion that you're not a person until you reach voting and drinking age. It's wrong. You don't get it, Doctor (with all due respect), and because you don't get it you can't give it. Let him go home. He isn't crazy, he isn't even strange. We have met the enemy, and he is us.”
― Howard Buten

“Той е човешко същество в детски дрехи. Той притежава физиката и чувствата на своя животински вид, но не са му дадени правата, които се полагат. И не само той има този проблем. Тази страна плува в самодоволния сос на масовата заблуда, че човек става личност чак когато достигне възраст за гласуване и пиене на алкохол. Голяма грешка.”
― Howard Buten, When I Was Five I Killed Myself
