that scene in high fidelity...the one where he says he's not a class warrior...i get that...i don't envy the rich...i don't romantize poverty...and i cerrtainly don't desire the middle...i grew up working class...i went to public...and private schools...i hve been homeless...by the time i got to the suburbs i had already been taugfht that the wealth of the world is temporary...the only things that last in life are...love...integrity...and hard work...these values are not restricted to any one class...and i could live hapy and well...without ever owning real estate...or needing tax shelters...or making nothing more than the minimum rage...
