"If you look at life as a whole,……" — Douglas Coupland

If you look at life as a whole, we have to admit… - Douglas Coupland

"If you look at life as a whole, we have to admit life's good where we live. But in an evil Twilight Zone kind of way there's nothing else to choose. In the old days there was always a Bohemia or a creative under-world to join if the mainstream life wasn't your bag - or a life of crime, or even religion.And now there's only the system. All other options have evaporated. For most people it's the System or what... death? There's nothing. There's no way out now."

— Douglas Coupland
