To stop the flow of music would be like the stopping of time itself, incredible and inconceivable.

Jean Baudrillard, Simulacra and Simulation
We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfillment
All that we are is the result of what we have thought.
If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him.
If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves
him.
I think it’s odd that grown-ups quarrel so easily and so often and about such petty matters. Up to now I always thought bickering was just something children did and that they outgrew it.
