I was an angry young man, as you say. I was a punk rocker…

“I was an angry young man, as you say. I was a punk rocker, blaming the government, corporations, and anything external, like my family, for my anger. I was pretty miserable, festering in my own mind. I began to think, there has to be a different way, there has to be another way out.” quote by Mark Coleman
