" The trouble with my generation
is that we all think we're fucking
geniuses. Making something
isn't good enough for us, and
neither is selling something, or
teaching something, or even just
doing something; we have to be
something. It's our inalienable
right, as citizens of the
twenty-first century. If Christina
Aguilera or Britney or some
American Idol jerk can be
something, then why can't I ? "
