R.E. Carr > Quotes

“It’s like you spend your whole youth being told just how awesome and special you are, but then you take one step outside and that bubble bursts.”
― R.E. Carr, Four

“It’s like my dreams were worn away by paper cuts, and at some point I woke up and realized that, ‘Hey, you aren’t going to be in a music video, land on the moon, cure cancer, or win Olympic gold.’ It’s like you spend your whole youth being told just how awesome and special you are, but then you take one step outside and that bubble bursts. The cold truth sinks in that you’re average and that you’re destined for middle management, at best.”
― R.E. Carr, Four
