Quote of the day
Matthew Good, 21st Century Living (from the album Avalanche):
Ambition, ambition's a tricky thing
It's like riding a unicycle on a dental floss tightrope over a wilderness of razor blades
Ambition can backfire
Ambition means more
Ambition means faster
Ambition means betterI wonder if you can sup--
Can you supersize ambition?
Does that make you ambitious if you supersize ambition?
Around here, our ambition hurts more than it helps
Around here our ambition throws an non-perishable item in a donation bin at Christmas
And it pats itself on the fucking back because it thinks it's done something decent.
(There's a YouTube video of it being performed after the break...)
Live in Vancouver back in 2005:
