“Others found the implication odd that they could live their way forever- working and drinking and watching TV- and why they would want to.”
“Money could be found, worked at, saved. But the spirit, when gone, was gone forever.”
“Maybe they would look at each other and feel some odd yearning, but neither of them would know why. They would want to stop, but they would be embarrassed, and neither would know what to say. They would go their separate ways. Who knew? Maybe that happened every day to people who'd once loved each other.”
“They always said on TV you could do anything you wanted, but here I was trying to do something and it wasn't working. I would never be able to do it.”
“There are other ways to live forever.”
“Either I've found my spiritual home, or I've watched too much TV”
