Chichikov reflected on his misfortune as he mechanically folded away the redundant paperwork into his travel box. He remarked to the houseman, who nonchalantly proffered his hand for a final tip, “Seems like I should make myself a Dead Soul around here, don’t you think?”.
Selifan, who had been waiting with his master’s overcoat for sometime decided to chime in: “We’re all Dead Souls in some sense or another, master.”
For some reason this seemed to please Chichikov, who even as he climbed into his carriage on springs, was happy to look at every passing former friend as a Dead Soul (part one).

Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around – nobody big, I mean – except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff – I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I'd do all day. I'd just be Holden Rapes his Sister, Phoebe and all.
