“Have you heard of the wonderful one-hoss shay,
That was built in such a logical way
It ran a hundred years to a day,”

“You sold Marmaros to the Russians. Scurried away in the night and left us to die. Is it to be wondered at that you should choose this place to build your house? The masterpiece of construction, built upon the masterpiece of destruction, the masterpiece of murder. The murderer of ten thousand men returns to the place of his crime.”
