Listen to this. This is how God works. [reading] I may be expressing myself through these beautiful symphonies of light, color, and language that manifests itself as music, but they will hail you as one of the great ones of the day, and think of you as a wonderful preacher, and teacher.

Huh?

Don't you get it? Ever since momma died, I've been trying to figure these things out. Why God took her away from me? Why he gave me all this success and fame? Why, out of all of the millions, he pick me to be Elvis Presley? Oh, these books are explaining things to me. Why is there so much suffering in the world, Joe? Why am I not happy when he gave me all of this?

Don't we make you happy?

No, Lamar, you don't. None of this does, that's the whole point. Oh, you guys have to read these books.

Hey, if it ain't got Batman in it, it ain't in my library.

Or naked women.

The hell with the lot of you.
