“Are we supposed to take out Spider-Man and SpongeBob? They don't have any heroes. We have a country in front of us with a large population and a large landmass, but it doesn't have any heroes. All of their heroes are cartoon characters — they're all fictional.”

Real energy.
Part of me thinks this is a rip of the "Zhuge Liang" story from the 48 Laws of Power. A lot of dorks have read that book, and one of the "laws" is "So much depends on Reputation — Guard it with your life". In the book they say a General played a lute in an unguarded city to prevent his foes from attacking. It's very lame. It's supposed to be some big bad lesson on power and how to use it. It's a very dumb story. I think a ton of writers think Robert Greene is worth reading. He isn't.
