I ran into this cited in an online article: "It may be that the most interesting American struggle is the struggle to set oneself free from the limits one is born to, and then to learn something of the value of those limits."--Greil Marcus Does anyone know where it comes from? -Still trying to make peace with those limits at age 52. . . .

That quote can be found in Marcus's book Mystery Train: Images of America in Rock n Roll Music.
