send you my address…the sensitive nature of my work for the government demands utmost secrecy. "Utmost" means the highest level. This is Travis’ way of telling his parents why he can never see them. I have been going with a girl for several months and I know you’d be proud if you could see her. "To go with a girl" is a casual way of saying to go out with her in a romantic way, perhaps by going out on lots of dates. No more will we the people bear the burden of the suffering for the few. "To bear a burden" is to accept the pain or trouble that goes with a certain responsibility or situation. This is Palantine’s way of suggesting he is with the masses of people against the rich or powerful. Travis decides to save Iris, whether she wants to be saved or not. You looking for some action?
