“People don’t care about this kind of stuff, ya know? We want self-improvement, not self-knowledge. We want change,” he motioned with his hands in a strange attempt to mock modern-day hipsters' version of change, “But not for any particular reason. We want to do good deeds but only if we can tell others about it. We want all sorts of ideals, not for their own sake, but rather for the sake of appearances. We don’t want knowledge; we want to show others we have knowledge.”
Cic Mellace, The Humble Good: A Novel

I don't want credit for their accomplishments. I just want someone to say, "That guy made me want to chase my dreams.”
Quentin Super, The Long Road North
