"I don't know what's going to happen. I'm flavor of the month at the moment, but somebody else is going to roll around the corner in three months' time. I just want to keep working. I can't stop!"

Film

And how much of it is part of our society now, these phrases, introvert and extrovert, where it actually came from."
