    Walt Whitman
    “I think I could turn and live with animals, they are so placid and self-contain’d, I stand and look at them long and long.

    They do not sweat and whine about their condition, They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins, They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God, Not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented with the mania of owning things, Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that lived thousands of years ago, Not one is respectable or unhappy over the whole earth.”
    ― Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass: The Death-Bed Edition

    Tim McGraw
    “People always ask me
    "Son what does it take
    To reach out and touch your dreams?"
    To them I always say

    Are you hungry?
    Are you thirsty?
    Is it a fire that burns you up inside?
    How bad do you want it?
    How bad do you need it?
    Are you eating, sleeping, dreaming
    With that one thing on your mind?
    How bad do you want it?
    How bad do you need it?
    Cause if you want it all
    You've got to lay it all out on the line”
