You're speaking coldly towards me but why is it that my heart isn't getting cold at all? Is it because your heart is saying something else?

Wilderness can be appreciated only by contrast, and solitude understood only when we have been without it. We cannot separate ourselves from society, comradeship, sharing and love.

It just seems to me that the world's kind of a mess, and the more messy it gets, the more interested I am in escapist fare.

I'm eager to get away from them. — Eric Stoltz

We have seen too much defeatism, too much pessimism, too much of a negative approach. The answer is simple: if you want something very badly, you can achieve it.

Music can also be a sensual pleasure, like eating food or sex. But its highest vibration for me is that point of taking us to a real understanding of something in our nature which we can very rarely get at. It is a spiritual state of oneness. — Terry Riley
