“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
― Albert Einstein

“But when we experience pain or trauma, we’re acutely aware that something is wrong. You want answers. “What is this? How do I get rid of this? Why is this happening to me? I don’t want this.” That’s why so much art, and music, in particular, becomes a great commiserating balm for pain. Joy doesn’t need to be audited. We’re just grateful to have had it at all. But pain, goddammit, we demand to know Who’s responsible for this?”
― Jeff Tweedy, Let's Go (So We Can Get Back): A Memoir of Recording and Discording with Wilco, Etc.

“if we all learn anything from being alive on this planet, it’s that people will lie to you, especially about how much or little they care about you. And I would guess there’s a lot more similarity in how we suffer than the way we experience joy.”
― Jeff Tweedy, Let's Go (So We Can Get Back): A Memoir of Recording and Discording with Wilco, Etc.

“When I write I can shake off all my cares. My sorrow disappears, my spirits are revived! But, and that’s a big question, will I ever be able to write something great, will I ever become a journalist or a writer?”
― Anne Frank, The Diary of Anne Frank: The Definitive Edition
