"I hate common humanity.

This oafish crowd

which tramples the ground

whence my cloud-capped pinnacles might rise.

I am tired of humanity—beyond measure.

Take it away.

This gaping, stinking, bombing,

shooting, throat-slitting,

cringing brawl of gawky,

under-nourished riff-raff.

Clear the earth of them!"

(Keppel from Star Begotten)
