"there are times, however, &this is one of them, when even being right feels wrong. what do you say, for instance, about a generation that has been taught that rain is poison&sex is death? if making love might be fatal&if a cool spring breeze on any summer afternoon can turn a crystal blue lake into a puddle of black poison right in front of your eyes, there is not much left except TV&relentless masturbation. it's a strange world. some people get rich&others eat shit&die. who knows?"
