“Climb up, climb up,” they say,

but sometimes it would be better to stop.

To be a Master is ok:

you don’t need to be a Doctor.

A Master can do all kinds of things and

become the king of everything.

Here’s magic for beginners:

things are always simple.

It’s the mind of an overanalytical bimbo that

can create an elephant out of a pimple.
