Enjoy life. There's plenty of time to be dead. Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle.

Follow your dream as long as you live, do not lessen the time of following desire, for wasting time is an abomination of the spirit.

You can remember, a single deluge only, but there were many previous ones.

Harmony sinks deep into the recesses of the soul and takes its strongest hold there, bringing grace also to the body & mind as well. Music is a moral law. It gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, and life to everything. It is the essence of order.
