Quote by Ed Westwick

I don't come from a famous family and don't have this detachment from everyday people and everyday life. I'm just doing my job and the attention that comes with it is part of the territory.

I don't come from a famous family and don't have this detach

Summary

This quote suggests that the individual speaking does not have a privileged background or lineage, and therefore does not possess the detachment often associated with those who come from famous or influential families. They perceive their occupation as simply fulfilling their duty, and acknowledge that the attention and fame that accompany it are expected aspects of their chosen path. This statement implies a sense of groundedness and acceptance of the circumstances that come with their job, choosing to remain engaged with everyday people and everyday life.

In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man's becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.

When I climb into my car, I enter my destination into a GPS device, whose spatial memory supplants my own. I have photographs to store the images I want to remember, books to store knowledge and now, thanks to Google, I rarely have to remember anything more than the right set of search terms to access humankind's collective memory.
