I think the future stopped looking American when you think back to Blade Runner and Neuromancer, when it started to look more Japanese.
There's a tendency on the part of Americans, all of us, to say, 'Hey, the Cold War is over, the Soviet Union is gone, we don't have to worry about these guys again.' We always have to be worried about them, we always have to be concerned about them, and we have to be well-informed.
I have lost everything, and I am so poor now that I really cannot afford to let anything worry me.
