“When I return to the world, I will be a man. I will walk among you. I will lick my lips with my small, dexterous tongue. I will shake hands with other men, grasping firmly with my opposable thumbs.

To you. To the world. I will be a good citizen, a good partner in the endeavour of life that we all share.”
