“I suspect that what make hedonists so angry when they think about overeachievers is that the overachievers, without drugs or orgies, have more fun.”

“Actually, I'm gonna have to introduce this song before I play it. This song is dedicated to a very good friend of mine named 'Jean', who's a spirit. She was possessing a person who was a very good friend of mine who was asleep. We've talked many times and she's told me about what it's like in other dimensions, like, places you'll go after you die. You're already there right now you know, there's places you'll go after you die, you're already there, you're already living that life simultaneously to this, 'cause they're in a kind of time zone where they uh, they're at every time at once and we're only in this short period of time. People who are spirits, they can be in every time zone at once because they don't have a sense of time. Subsequently they can't write songs, they can't do drugs, they can't have sex. They can't do all of the things we do because we have time. You don't realise time, it's not your flesh or anything like that, it's time. We're very lucky to have time, you should appreciate it while you have it because you're not gonna have it after you die.”

“A genuine essay has no educational, polemical, or sociopolitical use; it is the movement of the free mind at play. Though it is written in prose, it is closer in kind to poetry than to any other form. Like a poem, a genuine essay is made out of lenguage and character and mood and temperament and pluck and chance.”
