He is the least suspicious of mankind; and whether that's a merit, or whether it's a blemish, it deserves consideration in all dealings with the Doctor, great or small.”

“The drug dealers, they sympathize with me. They see me as some sort of pathetic character.”

“I feel sorry for confetti. Its useful life lasts about two seconds. And it can never be used again.”

“It is only possible through the fact that sympathy for the general life and suffering of mankind is very weakly developed in the individual.”
