“It wasn't as bad, Garraty discovered, if you stared down at your feet as you walked and leaned forward a little.

And when you fell they fell down on their knees
And when you broke they scrambled for a piece
And when you spoke I felt their anger freeze. ~ Metropolis”

“We don't actually fear death, we fear that no one will notice our absence, that we will disappear without a trace.”
