11. "She saw his package, from what I know, she said, 'That looks like a tube of cookie dough!'"
12. "Like a force field of multiplying meat. Cut in a hole in the floor to see just how close to hell we're standing. Time shoots forward in your skull. Scatter to the four winds, chucked in the bucket. Riding lamposts, moldy toast. Excitement level: zero."

21. "Quelle rendez-vous. My darling, why I sing this song is easy to explain. It tells what happens all along the bridges of the Seine."
