More From David Johansen

It's lonely at the top. ninety-nine percent of people in the world are convinced they are incapable of achieving great things, so they aim for the mediocre. the level of competition is thus fiercest for "realistic" goals, paradoxically making them the most time-consuming and energy consuming. it is easier to raise $10,000,000 than it is $1,000,000. it is easier to pick up the one perfect 10 in the bar than the five 8s.

Yes, my consuming desire is to mingle with road crews, sailors and soldiers, barroom regulars - to be a part of a scene, anonymous, listening, recording - all this is spoiled by the fact that i am a girl, a female always supposedly in danger of assault and battery. my consuming interest in men and their lives is often misconstrued as a desire to seduce them, or as an invitation to intimacy. yes, god, i want to talk to everybody as deeply as i can. i want to be able to sleep in an open field, to travel west, to walk freely at night.

A mother should have some fantasy about her child's future. it will increase her interest in the child, for one thing. to turn the fantasy into a program to make the child fly an airplane across the country, for example, isn't the point. that's the fulfillment of the parent's own dreams. that's different. having a fantasy - which the child will either seek to fulfill or rebel against furiously - at least gives a child some expectation to meet or reject.

I don't consider myself an expert in the why. i don't consider myself an expert in leadership. i consider myself a student of leadership and i consider myself a student of the why. i'm constantly learning and i'm constantly looking for opportunities where it it will fail.

We spend our whole lives worrying about the future, planning for the future, trying to predict the future, as if figuring it out will cushion the blow. but the future is always changing. the future is the home of our deepest fears and wildest hopes. but one thing is certain when it finally reveals itself. the future is never the way we imagined it.
