I do it because I love it and if there are people who enjoy what I do and there are fans because of it; well, then that's a plus. I don't wake up in the morning and go into the studio to make a record hoping that a DJ, one of my peers will play it. That's not why I make music. I do it because that's my passion and that's what I do. I'll do it for the rest of my life because that's who I am." - Junior Sanchez***************************************************** ********* "A person who is a master in the art of living makes little distiction between their work and their play, their labor and their leisure, their mind and their body, their education and their recreation, their love and their religion. They hardly know which is which and simply persue their vision of excellence and grace whatever they do, leaving others to decide whether they are working or playing. To them they are always doing both." ************************************************************ ** "If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world..." j.r.r. tolkein ************************************************************ ** ~the most wasted of all days is one without laughter~ ************************************************************ ** "Think Global...Act Local !!!"
