“The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.”

“When you think the night has seen your mind,
That inside you're twisted and unkind,
Let me stand to show that you are blind.
Please put down you hands 'cause I see you.
I'll be you mirror, reflect what you are.

I'll Be Your Mirror ”
― Lou Reed, Pass Thru Fire: The Collected Lyrics
