"Is a man who chooses the bad perhaps in some way better than a man who has the good imposed upon him?"  -Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange, page 96

I liked this book a whole lot more than I expected to. I think its reputation is perhaps an uncharitable one; it's only as violent as it needs to be to get its point across.

If someone made me physically unable to listen to my favorite music, I'd probably consider suicide, too.
