It seems like the big difference between good art and so-so art lies somewhere in the art's heart's purpose, the agenda of the consciousness behind the text. It's got something to do with love, with having the discipline to talk out of the part of yourself that can love instead of the part that just wants to be loved.
So which is the lie? Hard or soft? Silence or time?
Bliss—a-second-by-second joy and gratitude at the gift of being alive, conscious—lies on the other side of crushing, crushing boredom. Pay close attention to the most tedious thing you can find (Tax Returns, Televised Golf) and, in waves, a boredom like you’ve never known will wash over you and just about kill you. Ride these out, and it’s like stepping from black and white into color. Like water after days in the desert. Instant bliss in every atom.

Persons change, leave, die, become ill. They leave, lie, go mad, have sickness, betray you, die. Your nation outlives you. A cause outlives you.

You get more bang for the buck expanding capacity with rail than by building more lanes. The Eisenhower Interstate System is now mature. We need similar vision for the 21st century. We don't just need more lanes of pavement. We need to ask how we?re going to move freight in this country. And the answer should include rail.
Just keep a paper copy of what you filed.
I'm still sawing and cutting underhand and it seems to be getting better,
To divert meaningful volumes of through-trucks from I-81 in Virginia, the upgraded rail line would need to handle six new trains per hour, not per day.
There are a lot of people who are making $120,000 who could put $4,000 in for their spouse, but they don't do it, because they don't know any better.
It's taking the animals several seconds to run around, so this replay could be sending that information back through several stages and rewarding a long sequence of actions. It's that long sequence that is new.
It's a topic that's not clear-cut, ... That episode explored the issue very nicely.
