The girl I find who wants to talk about quantum theory in a bar is the one I want to marry.

It's great to want to be part of something, but it's a different thing completely to believe wholly in some type of movement, and to give everything for that something.
writing expression listening
I'll make music, whether or not anyone is listening, for the rest of my life. It's a natural form of expression for me, the same way I draw and write and sing.

Drawing and visual pursuits were first. Music came and found me in a way. Really, what it's about is creative problem solving, and music is a lot more an expression of that than painting is for me.
almost art difference draws identical intangible music nobody pen pulling sort wants
To me, it's like the difference between a pen and a paintbrush. Music draws from almost the identical place as art does, which really is that intangible - it's like you're pulling from the ether. I don't know where it comes from. Nobody really does. It sort of arrives when it wants to.
almost lucky mom parents
My parents are wonderful, and I'm really lucky - but my mom has always been almost exclusively a right-brained person.
