“The desires of the heart are as crooked as corkscrews
Not to be born is the best for man

Dance till the stars come down from the rafters
Dance, dance, dance till you drop.”

“I must tell you that I should really like to think there's something wrong with me- Because, if there isn't, then there's something wrong with the world itself-and that's much more frightening! That would be terrible. So I'd rather believe there is something wrong with me, that could be put right.”
