“They do not see his desolate and lonely heart. They don't care as long as there is a jester, only a fool. As silly as it can be. There's always a joker, that's the rule! But fate deals the cards that I see. “I am the joker.”

“There’s always a joker in the pack, there’s always a lonely clown. The poor laughing fool falls on his back and everyone laughs when he’s down. There’s always a funny man in the game, but he’s only funny by mistake. And everyone laughs at him, just the same.”

“They don’t see his lonely heartbreak. They don’t care as long as there is a jester, just a fool. As foolish as he can be. There’s always a joker, that’s the rule! But fate deals the hand that I see. The joker is me.”
