"I proved my point! I've demonstrated that there's no difference between me and everyone else! All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to loneliness... that's how far the world is from where I am, just one bad day! And you had a bad day once, am I right? I know I am! Why else would dress up as a flying rat? You had a bad day, and it threw you as crazy as everybody else! Only you wouldn't admit it, like to keep pretending that life makes sense, but there's some point all this struggling. I mean, what is it with you, what have made you what you are? My point is I went crazy, when I saw as a black awful joke the world was I went crazier as a coot, hahaha! I admit it! Why can't you? I mean, you're not unintelligent, you must see the reality of the situation... do you know how many time we've come close to a World War Three over a flock of geeks on a computer screen? Do you know what triggered the last World War? It's all a joke! Everything anybody ever valued or struggled for, it's all a monster's demented gag. So why can't you see the funny side? Why aren't you laughing?"
