You pay your money, you take your choice. I get the audience my language attracts and I lose the ones it repels.

My rejection of the idea of entertainment in its current form is based on the audience that comes with it.

I'm aware of my audience in a way, and I do try to engage with them while I'm trying to go about my business of thinking. I believe they help me by providing a focus.

You either mellow at 30, or your head explodes - take your choice.

You can have your titular recognition. I'll take money and power.

You get what you're good enough to take.
