Quotes Of The Now
I offer you a little enlightenment.
The proper function of man is to live - not to exist.
~ Jack London
Music changes people, and people change the world, and that's what I believe.
~ John Butler
My darling, believe your voice can mean something...
~ Lyrics from Futures by Jimmy Eat World
Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.
~ Robert Frost
"(Art)... rescues us from our self chosen triviality, to which we are so prone. It is like a deep organ note that makes my hair stir and a shiver run through me. I 'pull back' from life, like a camera taking a long shot with a wide angle lens. I quite simply become aware of more reality than before."
~Colin Wilson (The Occult)
Don't ever let anyone tell you that you can't do something... If you want something, you gotta go and get it. Period.
~ From the movie 'The Pursuit of Happiness'
"... sitting on the porch and writing songs at night and jamming with friends... and summer romances."
~ Jen Cloher, on what summer means to her.
"No, this is how it works; you peer inside yourself, you take the things you like, and try to love the things you took."
~ Lyrics from On the Radio by Regina Spektor
