And New York is the most beautiful city in the world? It is not far from it. No urban night is like the night there... Squares after squares of flame, set up and cut into the aether. Here is our poetry, for we have pulled down the stars to our will.

You can compromise between good, better, and best, and you can compromise between bad and worse and terrible. But you can't compromise between good and evil.
