"I have always thought about freezing myself. I do not like the idea of death. I know it is nothingness. So I do not want to die. I would like to see what is going on. I like history. I like how things change. I would like to see how people handle the energy crisis. If it will return to some dark ages. It would be interesting. I think this whole energy crisis is a wonderful experiment. No one knows how it will turn out. It is unpredictable. It is like us humans are writing our own real life novel. With a million subplots going in different directions, but all connected around the protagonist of oil. People have been so obsessed with controlling their reality for fifty years that we have all become OCD in someway. We don't wash our hands, but we check the news and weather every day trying to gather information, to give one a sense of control over reality. I like watching and I like to watch myself be unable to gather information and how weird it can all get."
-Noah Cicero
Good Advice:
"A village without music, is a dead village." African Proverb
"I think most of us grew up in a pretty sterile environment...It's all pretty much peaches and cream. Ya know...flowers. Every thing's nice. Ignore all the bad stuff. The world's just not like that. I think that the sooner people get to the point that they realize...the ugly stuff is just as important as the beautiful stuff...it goes hand in hand...I think that we can get on with evolving."
-Maynard James Keenan
"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." -Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense." -Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Failure isn't a bad thing...not trying is."
"Just rmember to live is to suffer but to survive is to find meaning in the suffering"
"The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible." -Arthur C. Clarke
"Most of the shadows of this life are caused by our standing in our own sunshine." -Ralph Waldo Emerson
"just think constantly about evolving and what we have to do personally and professionaly...and progressive thinking like that will make it happen as long as we act on it at the right times" -Stacks Nasty
"Poets are shameless with their experiences: they exploit them." -Friedrich Nietzsche
