"Often people attempt to live their lives backwards: they try to have
more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want so

have what you want."

" Life is like a box of chocolates. Cheap, thoughtless perfunctory gift
that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable because all you get back is
another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped
mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down until there's nothing else left to
eat. Sure, once in a while there's a peanut butter cup, or English toffee,
but they're gone too fast, and tastes... fleeting. So you end up with
nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth-shattering
nuts. And if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is
a... is an empty box, filled with useless brown paper wrappers."
	- Cigarette Smoking Man, "The X-Files."

Somewhere they're meeting on a pinhead,
Calling you an angel, calling you the nicest things..."

 Fighting for their place in rock-and-roll

before I get too deep

What I am is what I am are you what you are
or what?"
