Transcript:
Linus walks down the hall, looking at a book.<br> <br> "Lucy, will you read this book to me?" "NO!" Lucy is building with wooden blocks.<br> <br> "Aw, c'mon.." Linus follows her, the book in his outstretched hands. "NO!"<br> <br> "Pleeeeeze?" Linus squats on a cushion beside where Lucy sits. Lucy thinks black thoughts and shuts her eyes.<br> <br> She reads, "'A man was born...He lived and he died!'"<br> <br> "'The end!'" She tosses the book over her shoulder and walks off. Linus sits on the cushion and watches her.<br> <br>"What a fascinating account..." Linus examines the book.<br> <br> "It almost makes you wish you had known the fellow.." Linus clutches the book close o him.<br> <br>

Linus is empathy, Lucy, something less. All callings,high or low, are burdens.

no wonder people write books, I mean, getting paid for that (JK I know Lucy didn’t rly read it, she just made it short, I don’t want any of you fools coming on me and saying “she made it short” I already knew that)
