“Schon mit Anfang zwanzig hatte ich mich, nach meiner Niederlage gegen die bösartige Ikea-Hollywoodschaukel, in einer Therapie mit dem Unterschied von Drive und driven auseinandergesetzt. Ich hatte tief hineingeschaut in meine Kindheit und Jugend und wusste seitdem, dass ich zwei Arten von Ehrgeiz in mir trug. Eine helle, lustvolle und eine bedürftige, abhängige. Für diese zwei Arten von Ehrgeiz kennt die deutsche Sprache keine unterscheidenden Worte, und doch sind sie grundverschieden.”

“The creative, the restless, and the driven are not content with the status quo, and they look for ways to move forward, to do things that others have not.

“At the point that I lay on my deathbed or find myself at the end of my life in whatever way that might come, I want to know with assurance that I squeezed everything out of my life and into the lives of those around me. I want to be wrung dry. I want to be a limp rag empty of everything. For if there is even the slightest hint of moisture within me that I somehow did not squeeze out into the life of someone else, I may have done well in life, but I nonetheless carried something to my grave that should have been left in the life of someone now standing at my graveside. And to die empty is the passion that wrings me dry in the living of my days.”
