Its not until you lose everything that you are free to do anything

Man, I see the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No

We won't, I will.

Isn't that the sorta mentality we should have?

I could write a book on what you've just written. Song lyrics?

we wont, i will - no.
"You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else." life never works out the way we plan it to and when we realise (we all eventually realise) that everyone is equal because everyone; no matter how successful or rich, no matter how stupid and ugly; has the same inevitability and to realise this: "First you have to give up, first you have to know... not fear... know... that someday you're gonna die." when you realise this then: "You have to consider the possibility that God does not like you. He never wanted you. In all probability, he hates you. This is not the worst thing that can happen." its only a matter of time before you think about everything you worked hard to buy - but never ever needed - then you can finally say to yourself: "I am Jack's wasted life."
thats the mentality we should have.....

or not, whatever......
