Why you? Why us for that matter? Why anything? Because this moment simply is.

It's a nice glass of champagne at the end of a life.

That was what made them so hilarious and unafraid. That was the strength of the Nazis. [...] They understood God better than anyone. They knew how to make Him stay away.

I saw a huge steam roller, It blotted out the sun. The people all lay down, lay down; They did not try to run. My love and I, we looked amazed Upon the gory mystery. "Lie down, lie down!" the people cried. "The great machine is history!" My love and I, we ran away, The engine did not find us. We ran up to a mountain top, Left history far behind us. Perhaps we should have stayed and died, But somehow we don't think so. We went to see where history'd been, And my, the dead did stink so.

Nowadays, of course, just about our only solvent industry is the merchandising of death, bankrolled by our grandchildren.

Tis better to have love and lust Than to let our apparatus rust.
