"My understanding of what it means to be average has nothing
to with statistics. The average American
is truly average only in the ways he falls short of his own potential,
particularly when his is motivated by the exceptions of others. People are average when they are driven by a
motivation to fit in. The American
challenge, then, is to be oneself – only, exactly and totally. Our failure is
that we actively resist people who fall outside the status quo and especially
those who reach beyond it on purpose. An
average American is one who cannot overcome his instinct to view the honest
aspirations of others with suspicion."
