"Why aren't crazy people content to take over just one town? It always has to be the whole world. They can't settle for controlling a small group, only twenty people, but strive to dominate everyone." This highlights a recurring theme of excessive ambition and desire for universal control, beyond reasonable limits.

"They can't just be rich, or conduct genetic experiments on a few. Instead, they want to put something in the water or air to affect everyone." The narrator expresses frustration with the pervasive and invasive nature of these larger-than-life schemes, emphasizing the exhaustion caused by such relentless pursuit of total domination."
