Cynical view of happiness.

Happiness is no more real than religion.

Sad, but true.

Our perceptions allow us to create for ourselves a shield behind which we can hide.

It's all thanks to modern corporatism.

Religion is definitely real.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
