What inspired Miles to make the Apathy, link

"When I was in college, I read a short story titled Bartleby the Scrivener.

''I was never a huge fan of assigned reading, but this one stuck with me. It's a story of depression in what was then a new and growing isolated work culture in America.''

''In this tale was an idea of a man who became so apathetic to everything and everyone around him, that he was fired, evicted, imprisoned, and eventually... starved. Because when it came to doing anything he would "prefer not to".''

That line haunted me.

"I would prefer not to.""
