Good thing your parents didn't share that view or you may not have been born, or at best you would have been an orphan at an early age.
Its better to burn out then to fade away.

Originally posted by shortcircuitMozart and Mahler endure the test of time. I don't remember the last time I heard Elvis played publicly. In fact, I haven't heard him played for many years. But then, I don't live in the USA where dead horses are flogged!
So you are pissed at success then? If something endures the multitudes and the test of time, then it must have merit, or else everyone likes crap.
