    Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.

    I love cats, it used to be dogs... This is horrible. Some people grow very attached to their animals and I can only imagine how heartbreaking this is for the owner.
