Spalding Gray Zitate

I was raised as an upper-class WASP in New England, and there was this old tradition there that everyone would simply be guided into the right way after Ivy League college and onward and upward. And it rejected me, I rejected it, and I ended up as a kind of refugee, really.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich wurde als WASP der oberen Klasse in New England erzogen und dort gab es diese alte Tradition, dass jeder einfach in die richtige Richtung nach dem Ivy League College und weiter und aufwärts geführt werden würde. Und es hat mich abgelehnt, ich habe es abgelehnt, und ich war wirklich eine Art Flüchtling.

Knowing that you're the one who's been rejected, God it makes you feel isolated. I defy anybody not to be a bit upset. I felt as though I'd walked into the house trailing all this baggage.
