It doesn't work like that.

You don't just fly a flag of potential

And expect every Cameron to plant you on the bow of the Titanic.

Every person you meet isn't always a Kubrick - they aren't all Spielbergs.

Every Girl you see doesn't have to be your Marilyn, your perfect muse or your next lay.

We are not all Charlemagnes, not all Ozymandias, Boudicca or Vercingetorix -

Every Hollywood mogul isn't a Caesar and every best seller isn't a Hamlet.

Every hood rat isn't a Kendrick, every soldier isn't a Beowulf

And every amputee is not a Terry Fox.


We might be made of the same thing 

But we are not the same.


Know this,

And act accordingly.
