Being an artist is this kind of occupation in which you have to make people care about your obsession.
The best music is essentially there to provide you something to face the world with.
Now everyone dreams of a love faithful and true, But you and I know what this world can do. So let's make our steps clear so the other may see. And I'll wait for you...should I fall behind wait for me.
You can't start a fire without a spark
I leave pansies, the symbolic flower of freethought, in memory of the Great Agnostic, Robert Ingersoll, who stood for equality, education, progress, free ideas and free lives, against the superstition and bigotry of religious dogma. We need men like him today more than ever. His writing still inspires us and challenges the 'better angels' of our nature, when people open their hearts and minds to his simple, honest humanity. Thank goodness he was here.

You can't have a United States if you are telling some folks that they can't get on the train. There is a cracking point where a society collapses.
When it comes to luck, you make your own.
You know, my music utilizes things from the past, because that's what the past is for. It's to learn from. It's not to limit you, you shouldn't be limited by it.
Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king, and a king ain't satisfied until he rules everything.
