Only time can heal your broken heart. Just as only time can heal his broken arms and legs.

If our 'message' is anything, it's a positive approach to life. That life is basically good. People are basically good.

I know it's easier to portray a world filled with cynicism and anger, where problems are solved with violence...It's an easy out.
