"Poor Unhappy Erik! Shall we pity him? Shall we curse him? He asked only to be 'someone', like everybody else. But he was too ugly. And he had to hide his genius, /or use it to play tricks with/, when, with an ordinary face, he could have been one of the most distinguished of mankind! He had a hear that could have held the empires of the world; and, in the end, he had to content himself with a cellar. Ah yes, we must needs pity the Opera ghost." From The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux

The more you gain, you more you stand to lose.
But would you be better off if you chose to have nothing?
