    "My words are for all; for all, I repeat for all. No one is excluded. Free to all who pay. Free to all who pain pay for all to see for all to see; in Picadilly, in Times Square, Place de la Concorde; in all the streets and plazas of the world! Pay, pay, pay. Play it all, play it all , play it all back. Pay it all, pay it all, pay it all back."
