Read the excerpt from Infinite Jest

'My application's not bought," I am telling them, calling into the darkness of the red cave that opens out before closed
eyes. 'Tam not just a boy who plays tennis. I have an intricate history. Experiences and feelings. I'm complex.
"read,' I say. 'I study and read. I bet I've read everything you've read. Don't think I haven't. I consume libraries. I wear
out spines and ROM-drives. I do things like get in a taxi and say, "The library, and step on it." My instincts concerning
syntax and mechanics are better than your own, I can tell, with due respect.
The theme suggested by the excerpt is about
A. being understood
B. the value of education
C. wisdom versus foolishness
D. learning responsibility
