I'd like to meet:

Those who are thoughtful, have an opinion, stand up to adversity, and take action.Those who are creative, express themselves and demonstrate there are no limits.Those who are dynamic and show others great possibilities.Those who lead, guide, and teach; and understand their direct impact, and their larger, indirect impact.Those who see their responsibility far beyond any defined lines.Those who take on any issue unaffected by risk, challenge, or enormity.Those who don't dismiss their own power to make a difference.Those who live life to the fullest.And then all the other characters who are left, especially those who are passionate, romantic and desire - beyond reason.

Music:

Without music, life would be a mistake. - Nietzsche

See You Around
-Vic Chesnutt
(Excerpt)
Well, how are you with issues
Lately you've been a half-assed activist
You've been seen sashaying around the picket line
Wearing scarcely any sign
Oh, but always vocal in love and strife
And the politics of your all important life
Well, I'm sorry but your routine is coming off a bit ragged
And I ain't got time for the niceties
Or rather I was never, never fond of the niceties
I will see you around

"Do you know who the real heroes are? The guys who wake up every morning and go into their normal jobs, and get a distress call from the commissioner, and take off their glasses and change into capes, and fly around fighting crime. Those are the real heroes." "I am not a hero. I am a mere defender of the office. You know who is a real hero? Hiro, from Heroes. That's a hero. Also, Bono."
-Dwight Schrute, The Office
