It's an excuse to do nothing useful or take self-responsibility. It means that, "Life isn't fair, so I'll blame anyone but myself."bones33 said:I'm having a little trouble udnerstanding this quote, i know, weird question... I dont get what the "rock" symbolizes.

Slavery is not dead, just less recognizable.
Today, 27 million people are enslaved, more than at the height of the transatlantic slave trade.
By Susan Llewelyn Leach | Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor
Slaves are cheap these days. Their price is the lowest it's been in about 4,000 years. And right now the world has a glut of human slaves - 27 million by conservative estimates and more than at any time in human history.

Between 1993 and 1996, the Paoletti family, headed by Adriana Paoletti Lemus, smuggled 100 deaf-mute Mexicans to New York City, where they were forced to sell trinkets on New York's streets and subways. The workers handed people keychains with tags reading "$1. I am deaf." The Paoletti family, most of whom were also deaf, made over $1 million from the operation. The workers were housed in Queens, 10 people sharing a room. Those who did not meet the $600-a-week quota and those who tried to escape were shocked with a stun gun. The operation was discovered after several of the workers reported their situation to the police. Lemus and 19 others were charged. Lemus eventually pled guilty and was sentenced to 14 years in prison and ordered to pay $1 million to her victims.
