moon palace

'your a dreamer boy'.'your mind is on the moon, and from the looks of things, it's never going to be anywhere else. you have no ambitions, you don't give a damn about money, and you're too much of a philosopher to have any feeling for art. what am i going to do with you? you need someone to look after you, to make sure you have food in your belly and a bit of cash in your pocket. once i'm gone you'll be right back where you started'
