Quote context

- Kinda nice, eh, Stanley?

- Sure is. Just like playing hooky from school.

- We're all playing hooky more or less.

- Giovanni, what are you playing hooky from?

- From a world where I'm always being told what to do and then how to do it.

- One day, a rich real-estate man in my village hired me to build a wall. I spent weeks trying to find bricks the right shape and kind of colour he wanted. I fitted them into place one by one, as if they were jewels.

- When the wall was finished, it was shining in the sun like a real work of art, because it was me, Giovanni, the best mason in Italy who'd built it.

- Then the man came to have a look. And he ordered me to tear down the wall. He'd suddenly changed his mind. He wanted a picket fence.

- That's when I decided to play hooky.

- We don't blame you.

- And you, what are you playing hooky from?

- Taxes!

- Yeah, we don't like taxes!

- Hey, Antoine, what about you? Where is your home?

- My home? I don't know. The whole world ought to be man's country. But for me... Someone seems to have locked all the doors.

- I can just see our island now. Palm trees and flowers... The sun to warm us, and the gentle rain.
