A lot of what I do involves working with visual sources I appropriate from all over the place.

This isn't a bad thing, and I feel it's a sort of homage to seventies magazine and newspaper ads.

Living in Windsor Ontario Canada, I listen to a lot of Detroit's National Public Radio station, WDET. The other day they had a fellow on who was talking about the Russian economic threat to the West. The above quote is from that interview. It rings true in any context.
