- bds: oh, about self-esteem. I think I have a better idea than everyone trying to feel better about themselves. really confident people should work on feeling worse about themselves. I'd rather live in a world where those people are built down, rather than a world where I'm built up. and I don't mean “hating yourself.”
- amg: right.
- bds: I mean, just a good long look in the mirror. a long, deep look.
- amg: right--exactly. I think a lot of people need to take a long, deep look in the mirror. and to have someone next to them look in the mirror with them and say, “who do you think you are?” over and over and over and over again.
- bds: I'm laughing.
