" Black: So how come they cant be your brothers in despair and selfdestruction? I thought misery loved company?
White: I'm sure I don't know.
Black: Well let me take a shot at it.
White: Be my guest.
Black: What I think is that you got better reasons then them. I mean, their reasons is just that they dont like it here, but yours says what they is not to like and why not to like it. You got more intelligent reasons. More elegant reasons. "
