“I am a Muslim, because it's a religion that teaches you an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. It teaches you to respect everybody, and treat everybody right. But it also teaches you if someone steps on your toe, chop off their foot. And I carry my religious axe with me all the time.”

“And it seems people should not build houses anymore
it seems people should stop working and sit in small rooms on second floors
under electric lights

and look through this house and the house does not want to be built”
