David 'Ashley' Planner: Hey, um, do you know that doing gymnastic exercise is a way better way to generate creative thoughts than just exercise?
Immaculada Boxer: I...
David 'Ashley' Planner: I'm trying out cartwheeling because I have this big idea. It's too big to exist, but I don't think dreaming gets enough credit.

I'd get a ton of bands together, and there would be a whole new canon... I don't think I'd make rock as popular, I mean... the rhythms that people rely on that are based off of it are just... the opposite of what music is really supposed to inspire, which is a passion for... life. And there would be an alternate set of book publishers to publish any books that this book would create by referencing. We'd open a Museum of Contemporary Art that was filled with... real art.
Immaculada Boxer: What would you call it?
David 'Ashley' Planner: I'm just frustrated because there are so many options, and there's only one choice to be made in a particular situation, and I think that... a fascist art project that costs billions of dollars and requires the violation of personal rights to bring it into f
