I SAID TURN IT OFF! Nobody laughs at me--because I laugh first! At me! ME--from Seattle; me--with no education; me, with no talent--as you've kept reminding me my whole life.

[… … …]

I love every second of it and I'll be damned if you're going to take it away from me! I am Gypsy Rose Lee! I love her--and if you don't you can just clear out now!
