15. “…Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I don’t know what will go first, rock ‘n’ roll or Christianity. We’re more popular than Jesus now. Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It’s them twisting it that ruins it for me.”

There could be hundreds of paths where one could go this way or that way — there’s a chance, and it’s very strange sometimes.”
