And I love my own music, I'm from Pennsyltucky:

TRUST ME: I am a nerd by your standards. Most people like me, but they will not describe me as "cool" and that's how I like it. I know my strengths and they're probably things you don't care about. But you won't catch me trying to look or act like anyone.
"Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities." -Voltaire
"Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol, morphine or idealism."
-Carl Jung
"Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night."
-Edgar Allan Poe
"What moves men of genius, or rather what inspires their work, is not new ideas, but their obsession with the idea that what has already been said is still not enough."
-Eugene Delacroix
As the years go by I find myself more inclined to want to love and embrace everyone. Anger is a great motivator, but a horrible method. I believe that there is no clear point when one person becomes two; the life is a continuous occurrence that never stops and then starts. I don't believe in gods or spirits, I think consciousness is only useful when you have a body. But I believe in preserving humanity, because what's taking place between my ears is always taking place somewhere, with some name, until we're all dead. In 3 billion years the Milky Way will collide with the Andromeda galaxy, and they will slowly merge. No one knows what will happen to this planet. It may be possible intelligent life will still be living then, and it may survive this. Let's try.
