Foxfire, Jim Marr's Rule By Secrecy, Boethius, Pimp by Iceberg Slim
"Whoever deeply searches out the truth and will not be deceived by paths untrue, Shall turn unto himself his inward gaze, Shall bring his wandering thoughts in circle home and teach his heart that what it seeks abroad it holds in its own treasure chests within. What error's gloomy clouds have veiled before will then shine clearer than the sun himself. Not all its light is banished from the mind by body's matter which makes men forget. The seed of truth lies hidden deep within, and teaching fans the spark to take new life; why else unaided can man answer true, unless deep in the heart the touchwood burns? And if the muse of Plato speaks the truth, man but recalls what once he knew and lost." Boethius If you don't know who these guys are, then I can't help you! David who? Soul has no color How many bands can have a 50 song double CD anthology and you don't skip any of the songs?! white lightning
