Suddenly, I viddied what I had to do, and what I had wanted to do, and that was to do myself in; to snuff it, to blast off for ever out of this wicked, cruel world. One moment of pain perhaps and, then, sleep forever, and ever and ever.

There was me, that is Alex, and my three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie, and Dim, Dim being really dim, and we sat in the Korova Milkbar making up rassoodocks what to do with the evening, a flip dark chill winter bastard though dry. The Korova Milkbar was a milk-plus mesto, and you may, O my brothers, have forgotten what these mestos were like, things changing so skorry these days, and everybody very quick to forget, newspapers not being read much neither.

You have no cause to grumble boy. You made your choice and all this is a consequence of your choice. Whatever now ensues is what you yourself have chosen.

Madem kimileri iyi insan olmayi seciyor, madem bundan haz aliyorlar, onlara hayatta karismam, kimse de bana karismasin. Ama bana karisiyorlardi. Ustelik kotuluk bireye ozgudur, sizlere, bana ve tek tabancaligimiza ozgudur ve bizleri yaratan bizim Tanri'dir, hem de gururla ve keyifle yaratmistir. Ama birey olmayan seyler kotuluge katlanamazlar, yani devlet ve yargiclar ve okullar kotuluge izin vermezler cunku bireylere izin veremezler. Hem modern tarihimiz, bu buyuk makinelerle savasan cesur, kucuk bireylerin oykusu degil midir kardeslerim? Bu konuda ciddiyim kardeslerim. Ama yaptiklarimi sevdigim icin yapiyorum.
