Let us burn one From end to end And pass it over To me my friend Burn it long, we'll burn it slow To light me up before I goIf you don't like my fire Then don't come around Cause I'm gonna burn one down Yes, I'm gonna burn one downMy choice is what I choose to do And if I'm causin no harm It shouldn't bother you Your choice is who you choose to be And if your causin no harm Then you're alright with meIf you don't like my fire Then don't come around Cause I'm gonna burn one down Yes, I'm gonna burn one downHerb, the gift from the earth And what's from the earth Is of the greatest worth So before you knock it, try it first You'll see it's a blessing And not a curseIf you don't like my fire Then don't come around Cause I'm gonna burn one down YES, I'M GONNA BURN ONE DOWN! ~Ben Harper
Happiness resides not in posessions and not in gold;
the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul.
~Democritus

“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”
~Buddha
