“Can you be happy with the movies, and the ads, and the clothes in the stores, and the doctors, and the eyes as you walk down the street all telling you there is something wrong with you? No. You cannot be happy. Because, you poor darling baby, you believe them.”

“They thought to use and shame me but I win out by nature, because a true freak cannot be made. A true freak must be born.”
