After some time here— enough to make a good go, I think— I have concluded that I'm not cut out for space. My wife would say I'm not cut out for anything! And maybe she's right. Maybe I was born, maybe I was made. I don't think I was cut out.

Some think government is a necessary evil. Some think it's not even necessary, I bet. People who are a lot more clever than I am have been trying to talk together a government here for quite a while. But that's what they say about the speed of bureaucracy! I don't want to get into all that, since I prefer to be disagreeable in more amusing ways… [ He lets that drift off, a bit. ]

But it got me wondering! Maybe not everyone here is used to a government! Or a council, or having any say in how laws fall onto them. Where I come from, the priests rule, and the high priest, they say, has the ear of God.

What about you?

And that's the right kind to have. Heroes shouldn't rely on other people to do the job for them.

Eh, old people have earned the right to relax. You guys can leave things to the next generation.
