| Q: |
But what about ethical values? Don't you worry about the moral climate below the waters? |
| A: |
(pausing) Are you trying to bait me? |
| Q: |
No. I'm just deeply concerned about the lack of ethics around us. |
| A: |
That's easy for jerks like you with food in their bellies to say. When you're really hungry yer concerns may change. Try going without food for three days & see how yer ethics shift. |
| Q: |
What's your secret of survival, Willy? |
| A: |
Survivors don’t tell secrets – only fools have big lips. If you really want to survive, don't remind people of the little secrets they prefer to ignore. Also, it helps to blend in – you've gotta change colors quickly. |
| Q: |
So how do you feel about duh future? |
| A: |
Well, ah, umm . . . None of us can escape the food chain, but we can celebrate our brief moments with élan. The business ah survival is seldom clean. |
