Kurt: “We are stuck in such a rut. We have been labeled. R.E.M. is what? College rock? That doesn’t really stick. Grunge is as potent a term as New Wave. You can’t get out of it. It’s going to be passé. You have to take a chance and hope that either a totally different audience accepts you or the same audience grows with you.”
Interviewer: “And what if the kids just say, “We don’t dig it, get lost.”
Kurt: “Oh, well. [Laughs]. Fuck ‘em.”](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m498bcM6i01qir6ydo1_1280.jpg)

Courtney: “We have a nanny named Jackie. She’s been working 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I always knew I that I wanted a nanny, pretty much from France’s infancy.”
Kurt: “I always wanted to be a professor. Nanny and the professor.”
Courtney: “Yeah, I get the joke. It’s kind of like your Michael Jackson joke at the MTV Video Music Awards. Kurt sometimes tells bad jokes. Sometimes he tells them to 20 million people.”
