I'm happiest when I feel that several almost opposing sensations are present at the same time.
Music is nothing separate from me. It is me. . . You'd have to remove the music surgically.
Don't go backwards - you've already been there.
It's like Duke Ellington said, there are only two kinds of music - good and bad. And you can tell when something is good.
I was born with music inside me. Music was one of my parts. Like my ribs, my kidneys, my liver, my heart. Like my blood. It was a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me-like food or water.
Just because you can't see anything , doesn't mean you should shut your eyes.
Music to me is like breathing. I don't get tired of breathing, I don't get tired of music.
My life wasn't beautiful and creative before I became politically active. My life was totally changed when I began to struggle.
The heart of salvation is the Cross of Christ. The reason salvation is so easy to obtain is that it cost God so much. The Cross was the place where God and sinful man merged with a tremendous collision and where the way to life was opened. But all the cost and pain of the collision was absorbed by the heart of God.
I must seem like an ostrich who forever burries its head in the relativistic sands in order not to face the evil quanta.
Meaning is not in things but in between them.
