Enjoyment

“I don’t think we injye other people’s sufferin’, Hinnessy. It isn’t acshally injyement. But we feel betther f’r it.”

Gratitude

“Wan raison people ar-re not grateful is because they’re proud iv thimsilves an’ they niver feel they get half what they desarve. Another raison is they know ye’ve had all th’ fun ye’re entitled to whin ye do annything f’r annybody. A man who expicts gratichood is a usurer, an’ if he’s caught at it he loses th’ loan an’ th’ intherest.”
