"“I’ve always felt a little distant from American culture,” Beck admitted. “Because, speaking in broad terms, things that truly capture the American ideal are usually pretty one dimensional. I don’t want to say ‘lowest common denominator’ because I’m not snooty about it, but there’s not much room for ambiguity. You’re really only allowed to be one thing here, so when I came out it was, ‘You are the slacker, that’s your thing.’ That’s great, but can’t I be a couple of other things? And I think if you want to achieve true success here you have to say, ‘OK, that’s all I am.’ You have to be that cartoon forever.”"
