Transcript:
Calvin: I don't understand it, Hobbes. The kids teased me when I didn't play baseball. Then they yelled at me when I did play. Then the teacher called me a "quitter" when I stopped playing. Unless you're a star, you can't please anyone. Hobbes: In that case, why not just please yourself? Calvin: Because mom won't let me move to Madagascar.

I wish I knew, Calvin…I really, really wish I knew…it’s just one of those places where people expect you to be someone you aren’t. Sometimes I feel that way…check that, I ALWAYS feel that way.

Unfortunately, Calvin, pleasing yourself isn’t helping make you accepted by the others either.
