->'''Marty:''' Okay, you all have your side, and I'll have mine. And if you need me, I'll be over here, on the ''fun'' side of the island, havin' a good old time!
->'''Alex:''' That's not the fun side! ''This'' is the fun side! This is the fun side, where we're gonna have a great time surviving until we go home! Ooh, I love this side! This side's the best! That side STINKS! You're on the Jersey side of this cesspool!

->The space was divided into two, with a narrow bed against one wall on each side. The dividing line was painted on the floor, up the walls and across the ceiling. My half, your half.\\
So long as we remember that, the line indicated, there won't be any more...trouble.\\
In the middle, so that it bestrode the boundary line, was a table. A couple of mugs and two tin plates were carefully arranged at either end. There was a salt pot in the middle of the table. The line, at the salt pot, turned into a little circle to encompass it in its own demilitarized zone.
