My name is of no importance. You see, I'm a product of a century
|
which started at the height of class-conscious imperialism and ended
|
with a society so reduced to totalitarian commonness that in my final
|
years at college the saying 'mediocrity rises' became very popular.
|
And being mediocre, I rose. But you're not supposed to laugh at that.
|
My generation has been taught to be so in touch with the latest fashion
|
that we have become faceless; we're victims of design.
|
But, oddly enough, although I was taught to think of myself as a man
|
with no face, somewhere inside my soul I believe that one day
|
I'll become an individual.
