Because music, like color, or a cloud, is neither intelligent nor unintelligent - it just is. The chord, the simplest building block for even the tritest, silliest chart song, is a beautiful, perfect, mysterious thing, and when an ill-read, uneducated, uncultured, emotionally illiterate boor puts a couple of them together, he has every chance of creating something wonderful and powerful.

Because in the end, you won't remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain. Jack Kerouac
Because I don't want you forgetting how different our circumstances are. If you die, and I live, there's no life for me at all back in District Twelve. You're my whole life, I would never be happy again. It's different for you. I'm not saying it wouldn't be hard. But there are other people who'd make your life worth living. Suzanne Collins
Stephen King quote: "because the hardest boss a man can ever have is himself."
because the hardest boss a man can ever have is himself. Stephen King
Because I think to myself, even today, how can the world in all its chaos come up with so many coincidences, so many similarities and exact opposites? Amy Tan
