Which comment by Dodecahedron best illustrates why numbers are dug from mines.

• Why, numbers are the most beautiful and valuable things in the world.
• That may be true, but it's completely accurate, as long as the answer is right, who cares if the question is wrong?
• We dig them and polish them right here, and then send them all over the world.
• It's completely logical.  The more you want, the less you get, and the less you get, the more you have.  Simple arithmetic, that's all.
