Problem is, it's all been done before. You see what I'm saying?
(That's no reason to quit.)
Wrong. Best reason to quit. Only reason to quit. A man has an idea. The idea attracts others like-minded. The idea expands. The idea becomes an institution. What was the idea? See, that's what's been bothering me, boys. But I'll tell ya, when I used to think about the idea itself, it'd put a big old smile on my face. You see, gentlemen, greed is for amateurs. Disorder, chaos, anarchy - Now that's fun!
(What about Devil's Night?)
What about it? I started the first fires in this goddamn city. Before I knew it, every charlatan shitheel was imitating me. Do you know what they got now? Devil's Night greeting cards. Isn't that precious? Yeah. The idea has become an institution, boys. Time to move along.
