Marya Hornbacher Quote
My generation was weaned on subliminal advertising, stupid television, slasher movies, insipid grocery-store literature, MTV, VCRs, fast food, infomercials, glossy ads, diet aids, plastic surgery, a pop culture wherein the hyper-cool, blank-eyed supermodel was a hero. This is the intellectual and emotional equivalent of eating nothing but candy bars – you get malnourished and tired. We grew up in a world in which the surface of the thing is infinitely more important than its substance – and where the surface of the thing had to be perfect, urbane, sophisticated, blasé, . I would suggest that if you grow up trying constantly to be an adult, a adult, you will be sick of being grown up by the time you’re old enough to drink.
