A Pastry Shoppe regular, Tori, blowing bubbles in her grape juice, while Buddy wonders what is going on.

 True? 

All societies are evil, sorrowful, inequitable; and so they will always be. So if you really want to help this world, what you will have to teach is how to live in it. And that no one can do who has not himself learned how to live in it in the joyful sorrow and sorrowful joy of the knowledge of life as it is.
