Music:
"Information is not knowledge.
Knowledge is not wisdom.
Wisdom is not truth.
Truth is not beauty.
Beauty is not love.
Love is not music.
Music is THE BEST..."
------------- Frank Zappa

Which fucked-up genius composer are you?
"Okay then, look around you.
Do those look like people?
Hell, they ain't even good enough to be animals.
Androids is more like it,
mutants at best.
They have become the machines they worship,
successfully post-human.
Now go look in the mirror.
Like what you see?
Think you're pretty cool, eh?
Well reflect on the fact that
THEY ALL THINK THE SAME THING
WHEN THEY LOOK IN THEIR MIRRORS.
And you look just as grotesque to them
as they do to you."

Baby Child as a man
as a living grain of sand . . .
Sitting on the ever changing shore,
Greeting the sunrise . . .
Picked up upon the Gypsy woman,
Hair Flaming Night as ravens even sleep . . . rainbow cloth
Tambourine complimenting her chant and choice of graces,
And Love Her God . . .
I actually looked upon her on my right . . . coming forth.
And Baby Child then secondly looked his left to eye
and 11 or 12 women, men and little ones approached:
They clad in their masters wish;
White robes swaying to be baptized.
These two worlds crossed each other in front of me, when
Afterwards, Baby Child sipped a heartful of ocean . . .
Spat out the waste and walked upon the new day.

"The world is like a ride
at an amusement park.
And when you choose to go on it,
you think it's real
because that's how powerful our minds are.
And the ride goes up and down
and round and round.
It has thrills and chills
and it's very brightly colored
and it's very loud and it's fun...
for a while.
Some people have been
on the ride for a long time,
and they begin to question:
"Is this real, or is this just a ride?"
And other people have remembered,
and they come back to us,
they say,
'Hey don't worry, don't be afraid ever,
because this is just a ride ...'
And we... kill those people." - Bill Hicks
