To put it another way, pain is god's megaphone to rouse a deaf world. why must it be pain? why can't he rouse us more gently, with violins or laughter? because the dream from which we must be wakened, is the dream that all is well.

More From William Nicholson

We can ignore even pleasure. but pain insists upon being attended to. god whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world....no doubt pain as god's megaphone is a terrible instrument; it may lead to final and unrepented rebellion. but it gives the only opportunity the bad man can have for amendment. it removes the veil; it plants the flag of truth within the fortress of the rebel soul.

I suggest to you that it is because god loves us that he gives us the gift of suffering. pain is god's megaphone to rouse a deaf world. you see, we are like blocks of stone out of which the sculptor carves the forms of men. the blows of his chisel, which hurt us so much are what make us perfect.

Even if nobody's singing, just when you talk, you're singing. i'll meet somebody and say, "oh, i'm tone-deaf." i say, "you're not tone-deaf, because if you were tone-deaf you would speak like that. but you're 'oh, i'm tone-deaf.' you already sang a song to me."

Sometimes i do a dylan song and it seems to fit me so right that i figure maybe i wrote it. dylan didn’t always do it for me as a singer, not in the early days, but then i started listening to the lyrics. that sold me.
