I come to ask questions, not to complain.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interrèd with their bones.
So let it be with our public transport companies.
The noble bus and train companies
Hath told you expenses are high.
If it were so, it was a grievous fact,
And grievously hath the patrons foot the bill."

"The buses are packed, so are the trains.
But public transport companies say it is acceptable,
And public transport companies are honorable people.
When that the buses have finally arrived,
they were fifteen minutes late.
First class public transport should have more punctual timings.
Yet one MP said it is acceptable,
And this MP is an honorable man.
You all did see how packed the buses and trains are
You thrice tried to get up the bus or train,
Which you did thrice failed because they are packed.
Is this first class?
Yet gahmen says our public transport is first class,
And, sure, gahmen are honorable men."
(ACT Public Transport, SCENE First class service)

"There is a tide in the price of COE,
Which, taken at the peak, leads on to gahmen's fortune;
If too low, all the people in the county
will bound to drive and abandon the public transport.
On such a decrease in public transport users we are now seeing,
We must take the action of decreasing COE quotas
Or lose even more public transport users."
(ACT Public Transport, SCENE Cut in COE quota)
 
"A new bus lane was drawn, and the roadworks
So all over the place to block the traffic
that a depressed driver might stand up
And say to all the world, “This was a road.”"
