- \ are hollow people. When I'm with them I just can't bear it, and wind up saying\

- \ things I shouldn't. With those women\u2014I should've just let it slide... But\

|
- \ turned around. But intolerant, narrow minds with no imagination are like parasites\
|
|
|
- \ that transform the host, change form, and continue to thrive. They're a lost cause,\
|
|
|
- \ and I don't want anyone like that coming in here.\""
