To all Cave Dwellers:

"King: 'Nobody belongs here, but here we are. My father and my mother didn't think! No, they didn't. But even if they had, as so many have, i still wouldn't belong here, and nobody else would either. The Bear belongs here, and all his kind. We're another creature. we know enough to know we know nothing, and it is terrible nor wonderful-it just is. His name is Gorky. But his mother never gave him the name. She just looked at him and there he was. A bear, and not a tiger, or a rabbit, or a hawk. We think, and remember, and speak, and laugh, and sing, and dance, and make things of all kinds, on purpose. We do all these things because we don't belong here. It's not our place. It's a cave. WHAT ARE WE DOING IN A CAVE? WE'RE ANGELS. WHAT ARE WE DOING IN BODIES? For some reason, we're trying our best, helplessly, to pretend that we are in them, that we belong in them, and that we are here, and that we belong here.'"

ahh what a wonderful quote. i loved it so much that i had to put it in here. if you think that this sounds good then go see the play! showing May 19th and 20th. yay!
