    Does society shape people or do people shape society?

    [Kosh]Yes.[/Kosh]

    And this one fits as well, in fact:

    Losers are shaped by society.

    Winners shape society, then go home and fuck the prom queen.

    People shape society, then society shapes the people who come after them, until they change the society to their own will and shape it again, ad infinitum.

    That's not accurate. I'm a winner, but I've never fucked a prom queen.

    People *are* society. Or society is people. How would you have a society without people?

    The worst thing about that movie was that line.

    Really, Mr. Mason? Winners go home and fuck the prom queen?

    So why has your ass been wasting away in prison for the last 40 years while someone else raised your daughter who now hates you because you weren't there for her?

    What, you did your best? :lol:

    That guy doesn't exist. No one wins all the time. The great ones try great things, sometimes fail, but always, always keep trying.

    Stupid line.
