I'm Not Going to Work - It's Too Much Work to Do

This upholding of the ideal self image, it's a game that you're playing. The problem is that it can't be won because what you're trying to do is make every opinion out there exactly the way you want. What people think about you says very little about you and your art or your work, or your looks, or your personality, or anything else about you. And one of the other reasons that i's not going to work is simply because opinions are very random, very random in nature, very capricious.
