3 " I'm an atheist, and I don't have any belief in an afterlife. You could say that I'm resigned to the fact that this wonderful life that we get here is it. And having hit 60, it's a good time to get resigned to these things and not be too nervous or upset - and enjoy what great times one can have. "

8 " Who was born in a house full of pain.Who was trained not to spit in the fan.Who was told what to do by the man.Who was broken by trained personnel.Who was fitted with collar and chain.Who was given a pat on the back.Who was breaking away from the pack.Who was only a stranger at home.Who was ground down in the end.Who was found dead on the phone.Who was dragged down by the stone.[song "Dogs", finale...] "
― David Gilmour , Pink Floyd - Animals

12 " So, so you think you can tellHeaven from HellBlue skies from painCan you tell a green fieldFrom a cold steel rail?A smile from a veil?Do you think you can tell?Did they get you to tradeYour heroes for ghosts?Hot ashes for trees?Hot air for a cool breeze?Cold comfort for change?And did you exchangeA walk on part in a warFor a lead role in a cage?How I wish, how I wish you were hereWe're just two lost soulsSwimming in a fish bowlYear after yearRunning over the same old groundWhat have we found?The same old fearsWish you were here "

20 " Hey you ! out there in the coldGetting lonely, getting old, can you feel meHey you ! Standing in the aislesWith itchy feet and fading smiles, can you feel meHey you ! don't help them to bury the lightDon't give in without a fight.Hey you ! out there on your ownsitting naked by the phone would you touch meHey you ! with your ear against the wallWaiting for someone to call out would you touch meHey you ! would you help me to carry the stoneOpen your heart, I'm coming homeBut it was only a fantasyThe wall was too high as you can seeNo matter how he tried he could not break freeAnd the worms ate into his brain.Hey you ! out there on the roadAlways doing what you're told, can you help meHey you ! out there beyond the wallBreaking bottles in the hall, can you help meHey you ! don't tell me there's no hope at allTogether we stand, divided we fall.
