I had rather do and not promise, than promise and not do. Music is a revelation, a revelation loftier than all wisdom and all philosophy. A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it bearing within it the image of a cathedral. It is not enough to stare up the steps we must step up the stairs. The poorest of all men is not the man without a cent, it is the man without a dream.
Nobody gets to live life backward.
No one can walk backward into the future. Self is the only prison that can bind the soul. This day is a day that we will never live again. Let everything count. Let every person matter.
