You think we're dancing?" "That's all we've ever done.
I am not made of steel. Rage. I...am made... of RAGE!!!!
Most people don't see Hamlet as an old bald guy.
I leave the world in terrible turmoil. I come back, same turmoil. Nothing at all different. Well, outfits are a little different...
Lockheed! You found me! You are the best X-Dragon ever.
Loneliness is about the scariest thing out there.
