![“[N]o one ever eats an ice-cream cone at a funeral, or a fire. The Red Cross doesn't drop ice-cream cones into third-world countries. If you're eating an ice-cream cone, it's just very hard to believe things have gone completely to shit. That there isn't still hope.” quote by Jonathan Tropper](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/7eb/jonathan-tropper-1555_cones_n-o-one-ever-eats-an-ice-cream-cone-at-a_480551.jpg)
