#Person1#: Thanks for agreeing to this interview, Miss Lerner. OK, so I have a few questions. First, when did you know you wanted to write children's books?

missionary: I am not much for medicine myself, perhaps we can best help the child with our prayers. Will you pray with me?
thief: No! Do you seriously think that will help? You need to go to him.
missionary: You doubt the power of prayer? I will pray that god forgives you too.
thief: God helps those who help themselves and others. How can a religious man let a child suffer?
missionary: What are you doing to help the child? Where did my prayer book go? I just put it down a few minutes ago?
thief: I see no prayer book. I have a bad back and cannot pick him up. That is why I came to ask you for help. If you cannot, please go find someone who can.
missionary: Why are you so eager to get me to leave the Nave? Is there some reason you do not want me here?
thief: Why do you mistrust an urgent plea for help? You would rather let a child suffer while you stand here debating? You are no man of God!

#Person2#: Did you work overtime again?

#Person1#: But there are still some people signing up for those shows just to experience a different life or to earn some money.
#Person2#: Anyway, I have no interest in these nobodies, whose idea of fame is that they were on a reality TV show. I admire people with real talent do actually earn their fame because they are different from the rest of us.
