Yeah ... so what happens to the 90% who fall along the way? Even geniuses
get sick and tired and need to pay the rent. It's a very over-romanticised
view of genius for you to take - more and more I realise it's not what you
know but who; there's so much tosh that gets out there, gets published, and
somehow finds its way into millions of hands that sometimes I think that
true talent - that is, originality, danger and innovation - is the direct
opposite of an advantage.
