| Andrei: | At one time I was idealistic, but recently as sense of pessimism has grown. |
| Ellesha: | Then discover parts of you that're still young. Most people have at least some parts that are uncorrupted by apathy or cynicism. |
| Andrei: | Iz zhat possible? I've seen so much deception 'n crap. Zhe entire world seemz like a flimsy façade. |
| Philyra: | C'mon Andrei! A certain amount of crap is inevitable. Don't be so damn fastidious! |
| Ellesha: | Philyraiz right. Our basic choice is to be alive err dead – az long az yer clinging ta some real err imagined past, yer dead . . . |
