"I have a very strong affinity for them. They're my parents, I mean, and
we're all part of each others' harmony and everything," Teddy said. "I
want them to have a nice time while they're alive, because they like
having a nice time... But they don't love me and Booper - that's my
sister - that way. I mean they don't seem able to love us just the way
we are. They don't seem able to love us unless they can keep changing us
a little bit. They love their reasons for loving us almost as much as
they love us, and most of the time more. It's not so good, that way."
