So in other words, we were constantly challenged to grow, and thats what a master does.
Everything's immediately diminished. That's why there's no real rock stars anymore. People are too accessible.
Life's too short to drink crappy coffee and cry over boys who don't care.
I think about dying but I don't want to die. Not even close. In fact my problem is the complete opposite. I want to live, I want to escape. I feel trapped and bored and claustrophobic. There's so much to see and so much to do but I somehow still find myself doing nothing at all. I'm still here in this metaphorical bubble of existence and I can't quite figure out what the hell I'm doing or how to get out of it.
Everything that we've ever done has led up to this moment, so I presume there's a certain intricacy in that.
There's a lot that's happened in my life that maybe I didn't want to happen, but I suppose it's led me to exactly where I am now.
I’ve always tried to find God in lots of different things, whether that’s been drugs, women, etc, etc… But all those things are tangible and they exist and you can see them and you can feel them. Music doesn’t exist, physically. Yet is commands ever facet of my personality and it has the power to command people how to feel on a physical level, uncontrollably. And I find that so fascinating.
We're being sold a brand new idea of patriotism. It never occurred to me that patriotism had to be advertised. Patriotism is something you deeply felt. You didn't have to wear it on your lapel or show it in your window or on a bumper sticker. That kind of patriotism does not appeal to me at all.
Science requires an engagement with the world, a live encounter between the knower and the known.
It is vain to do with more what can be done with less.
I love traveling; it's, like, my perfect escape.
