Mister Philosopher, they're not as common as that. Yes, some insipid fools. It's harder to find quality in foolishness than in talent or virtue. I'm a rare member of my species, yes, very rare. Now that they don't have me any more, what are they doing? They're as bored as dogs. I'm an inexhaustible sack of impertinence. At every moment I had a joke which made people laugh until they cried. For them I was an entire house of idiots.

her he misheard what I was saying or whether I spoke badly, but things got worse than before. To hell with it--doesn't he know me? Doesn't he know that I'm like a child and there are situations where I just let everything go under me? And then, God forgive me, I thought I'd never have a rest from performing. Even a puppet made of steel gets worn out if the strings are pulled from morning to night and from night until morning. I must relieve them of their boredom--I take that for granted--but I have to amuse myself sometimes. In the middle of this mess, a fatal thought went through my mind, an idea which made me arrogant and inspired me with pride and insolence: it was the notion that they couldn't do without me, that I was someone indispensable. ME: Yes, I think you're very useful to them, but they're even more so to you. You won't find a house as good as that one, when you want to, but those people, if they're missing one fool, can come up with a hundred. HIM: A hundred fools like me! VELVET MITS OR WHETHER HE MISHEARD WHAT I WAS SAYING OR WHETHER I SPOKE BADLY BUT THING'S GOT WORSE THAN BEFORE TO HELL WITH IT DOESN'T HE KNOW ME DOESN'T HE KNOW THAT I'M LIKE A CHILD AND THAT THERE ARE SITUATIONS WHERE I JUST LET EVERYTHING GO UNDER ME AND THEN GOD FORGIVE ME I THOUGHT I'D NEVER HAVE A REST FROM PERFORMING EVEN A PUPPET MADE OF STEEL GUTS GETS WORN OUT IF THE STRINGS ARE PULLED FROM MORNING TO NIGHT AND FROM NIGHT TO MORNING I MUST RELIEVE THEM OF THEIR BOREDOM I TAKE THAT FOR GRANTED BUT I HAVE TO AMUSE MYSELF SOMETIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS MESS A FATAL THOUGHT WENT THROUGH MY MIND AN IDEA WHICH MADE ME ARROGANT AND INSPIRED ME WITH PRIDE AND INSOLENCE IT WAS THE NOTION THAT THEY COULDN'T DO WITHOUT ME THAT I WAS SOME ONE INDISPENSABLE ME YES I THINK YOU'RE VERY USEFUL TO THEM BUT THEY'RE EVEN MORE SO TO YOU YOU WON'T FIND A HOUSE AS GOOD AS THAT ONE WHEN YOU WANT TO BUT THOSE PEOPLE IF THEY'RE MISSING ONE FOOL CAN COME UP WITH A HUNDRED HIM A HUNDRED FOOLS LIKE ME
