I don't want to appease everyone. It seems very difficult to be steadfast on truth and be a politician.

American democracy is spoiled by people buying everything in sight and then selling and buying everything in sight, including our politicians.

Reacting to the world with a smile instead of a curse, a wave instead of the middle finger, will actually help you live longer.

If you play basketball, you get into the zone. You can't miss. That's the expansive mindset we're all seeking. But that only comes when the mind is quiet and separate from the noise. And the greatest tool to eliminate the noise is meditation.

Music is the noise that surrounds the stillness of the art form.

Quiet time is the key. We have hundreds of thousands of kids around the country meditating through the David Lynch Foundation.
