A Beast.

"It's sweeter to have to suffer a wrong than to commit one. To have to submit to such a sweet wrong without deserving it seems to me the essence of all earthly bliss........I was a baby when I came into the world, otherwise I might have been smart enough to be a different person. Why should I have to suffer for the fact that everyone else was already here?..........I'm going to concentrate as hard as I can on whipped cream. Whipped cream is so innocuous. It's filling and it leaves behind a pleasant aftertaste. Human beings I imagine as being infinitely worse. I never met anyone who didn't want the best for himself."


-Frank Wedekind, Spring Awakening 1891
