Eventually I would like to reach the stage where I don't have to write about love and kisses and all that stuff. I wish I could write about really ultimate things.

Eric BurdonLongevity is something I never gave a second thought to. I guess it's the shadow of growing up in post WWII, but I never believed I would live past 20.
