that people in america are stupied because they shit on the people who don't follow there american way then the person becomes a remote important person and it was ok that they were like that. people are not important until they are important.
I think he's saying people aren't given the chance to live up to their potential. There's no way for you to tell how talented or brilliant someone could be in any given area if you don't give them the chance to prove it. The remote possibilities any one person can hold are infinite, regardless of their race or backround.
The remote significance of this quote is plain to see that not every single chicano is a genius of art, a rocket scientist, what have you. Just because a few are great doesn't mean everyone gets the chance, sometimes you have to fight.
i am not sure who this guy is speaking of but he is talking about some guy with his own remote ideas in his head.
this quote means to me that he is sad that so many chicanito people flucking math and english but then the remote subject of paintings come it to text.it is really bacsically two different subject put together.
I live in a remote area meaning that in the minds of people they are far away from the beauty this place posses

i think that this quote means that eventhough we have people that are from remote locations they can be something big. they might be the ones that get made fun of but in the end are the biggest people we'll meet. everyone is capable of being something big.
this quote is weird but i think that it states that people might not show there all but in the end they do...
