This is Erik Mongrain, this is my role model!
"A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mind-bogglingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you -- daft as a brush, but very very ravenous); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough."
-Douglas Adams
Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, now the next great movie I can't wait for starring Simon Pegg (and Hank Azaria!!)!

To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they knew quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know?
- Socrates
Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; those in philosophy only ridiculous.
- David Hume
The friendships we made, is a waste of our time. There's no one left here, to show a future that's kind. It's a world of hate, gone incredibly wrong. We cared too late, we just followed along.
- Angels & Airwaves
Decrease the light, increase the smiles...a familiar beat is swarming the air...We'll play to our deaths for we possess true happiness. We are finally free. Dying with our one passion, music: the greatest wealth of them all. We must play on.
- Between the Buried and Me
Even though I know every minute I spend hanging with you are minutes of my life I will never get back, it makes me feel better to know that I can re-live every minute in my mind knowing I spent it with you.
- Anonymous
What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
She walks in beauty, Like the night of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright meet in her aspect and her eyes.
- Byron
The greatest weakness of most humans is their hesitancy to tell others, how much they love them... while they're alive.
- O.A. Battista
