"We have been chased by schizophrenic wolves in the forest and we still are not tired. We traveled to the far ends of a nuclear winter. We slept in the shit and vomit of our ancestors. We felt the fear and went to the telephone. Like Bogart, searching for desperate positions. We find solace in your regret, happiness in your sorrow, and a place to bury ideas. On a boat, there is no lighthouse on the seas, death comes fast and the whale will kill us all. If I should die at the end of the world, will fight the ocean and sink her ship with a thousand harpoons."
