“You traded all your paper clips for a soap dish that way your best friend’s rubber ducky wouldn’t slip and slide away, but he traded his rubber duck for a cigar box to place your paper clips in. Mr. Hooper came to say ‘Oh my dear friends, Bert and Ernie,  here’s a little something for each of you from me; here are your paper clips and here’s your rubbery ducky. How could I ignore such selfless generosity?’” - Kimya Dawson, “My Mom”
