Influences:
I like any reaction I can get with my music. Just anything to get people to think. I mean if you can get a whole room full of drunk, stoned people to actually wake up and think, you're doing something. Jim Morrison

Pain doesn't travel in straight lines. It circles back around and comes up behind you. It's the circles that kill you. Pat Conroy (1945 - ), Beach Music

How good bad music and bad reasons sound when we march against an enemy. Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900)

I don't know anything about music. In my line you don't have to. Elvis Presley (1935 - 1977)

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)

Every now and then when your life gets complicated and the weasels start closing in, the only cure is to load up on heinous chemicals and then drive like a bastard from Hollywood to Las Vegas ... with the music at top volume and at least a pint of ether. Hunter S. Thompson (1939 - 2005), "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas"

Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." - Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

"Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws." - Plato (427-347 B.C.)

Daring ideas are like chessmen moved forward; they may be beaten , but they may start a winning game. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted as true is really true, there would be little hope of advance. - Orville Wright

The most important service rendered by the press and the magazines is that of educating people to approach printed matter with distrust. - Samuel Butler

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans-John Lennon

I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything. I've always been a freak. So I've been a freak all my life and I have to live with that, you know. I'm one of those people.-John Lennon

A banker is a fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining, but wants it back the minute it begins to rain. - Mark Twain

Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with. -Mark Twain

A countryman between two lawyers is like a fish between two cats. -Benjamin Franklin
