    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850?1894)

    Human female: "The holiday season is time of celebration for most but it is
    also the time to remember the tragic suffering of the less
    fortunate."
    Morbo: "Earthlings do not yet know the meaning of suffering."
    Human female: "Earlier today I visited the shelter for down-and-out robots.
    Homeless robots too poor to afford even the basic alcohol they
    need fuel their circuits. Is there anything sadder?
    Only drowning puppies and there have to be a lot of them."
