John Connor

• The Japanese have a saying, "Fix the problem, not the blame." Find out what's fucked up and fix it. Nobody gets blamed. We're always after who fucked up. Their way is better.

• We may come from a fragmented MTV rap video culture, but they do not.

• Do you know what's true? When something sounds too good to be true, then it's not true.

• They say if you must resort to violence, then you've already lost.
