My choice early in life was either to be a piano-player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference. -- Harry S. Truman

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

"I d-d-doubt there was any-anything any pony cou-could have done abou-abou-about that, d-Dynamo," Bluebell said.  "I'm j-just grateful that you were arou-around to st-st-stand up for m-me, and to take me h-h-here."

"Be fair to Shining," said Princess Luna.  "It's because he cares."

"I n-know, and I l-l-love th-them both d-d-dearly, but I do-don't want to li-li-li-live my life being sc-scared anymore.  I've had enough of th-th-that!"

"I'll b-be fi-fine," said Bluebell.  "Shining Armour and Cadence will be here soon," said Twilight.   "Oh m-m-my!" Bluebell said.  "When he f-f-finds out wh-what happened, He's go-going to want to hi-hide me in the k-k-keep and never let-let me out!"  "Don't you think you're overstating it a little?" said Spike.  "W-well I wouldn't put it pa-pa-past him," Bluebell answered.

@Tropical Melody

Boops you back!

If tin whistles are made of tin, what are foghorns made out of?

"It shouldn't have to happen to you for it to matter to you."

When they arrived at Bluebell' bedside, Spike climbed onto the bed, and gave Bluebell a hug, which she affectionately returned.  "How are you doing?", asked Twilight.

"The doc-doctor says a f-few weeks of-of healing and s-s-s-some physical therapy, and I'll be fit as a fi-fi-fiddle," said Bluebell.

Trigger warning: the racist origins of "Hold my beer."

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift.  That is why it is called a present.

"Here you go," said the receptionist, handing them each a pass to the emergency ward.  "She will be in number five on the right." 

"Please, come along," Luna said to Dynamo as they all made their way to Bluebell's bed.

Huuuuh?  Whaaaaaaaaaaa?  Nani?

"Talk to my heart, so I don't have to guess."
