Where we are from... [s]tories are factual. if a farmer is declared a music virtuoso by the state, everyone had better start calling him maestro. and secretly, he'd be wise to start practicing the piano. for us, the story is more important than the person. if a man and his story are in conflict, it is the man who must change.

Any young, aspiring musicians out there, if music is what you want to do, if music is what you love and your passion. it doesn't take a fragrance, it's not about the tabloids, it's about you putting in the work, practicing every day, practicing your vocals, practicing your instrument, practicing songwriting. hopefully one day you write the song the whole world wants to get down to. i promise you, if you go out there and sing and you put your heart and soul into it and you follow your dream, one day you're going to be sitting next to ellen degeneres talking about how you broke records and rocked the super bowl.

The farmer is a poor creature who skins the land and leaves it worthless to his children. the farmer is a good farmer who, having enabled the land to support himself and to provide for the education of his children, leaves it to them a little better than he found it himself.

One voice can change a room, and if one voice can change a room, then it can change a city, and if it can change a city, it can change a state, and if it change a state, it can change a nation, and if it can change a nation, it can change the world. your voice can change the world.

So let us decide whether you want a shelter, a safety zone, which will no longer yield conflict, whether you want to escape from the present conflict to enter a condition in which there shall be no conflict; or whether you are unaware, unconscious of this conflict in which you exist. if you are unconscious of the conflict, that is, the battle that is taking place between that self and the environment, if you are unconscious of that battle, then why do you seek further remedies? remain unconscious.

The tories had the legal right to demand extra meetings of the council but i could decide when they would be held and always called them for friday afternoons, knowing that three or four of the richer tories went to the country early and were not prepared to stay in the city beyond lunchtime. i realised that nothing in politics is new when i read in suetonius's the twelve caesars that julius caesar pulled the same trick when reactionaries in the senate were making his life difficult.

I write for a radio show that, no matter what, will go on the air saturday at five o'clock central time. you learn to write toward that deadline, to let the adrenaline pick you up on friday morning and carry you through, to cook up a monologue about lake wobegon and get to the theater on time.

Last friday night; yeah we danced on tabletops. and we took too many shots. think we kissed, but i forgot?

To be honest, when i'm home, every day is a friday for me. it doesn't really matter what day it is for me. a lot of my friends actually have time off during the week, and so it doesn't prohibit me from enjoying myself when i am home on a monday or a tuesday.
