I like to think there's more to a person than just one thing.

It's fine to live in the now. But the best thing about now is that there's another one tomorrow. I'm going to start making them count.

You think, 'Here's something I can hold on to,' but it always slips away.

This stage in the life of the buzz is truly fabulous. It’s not even a buzz anymore. It’s a roar. The world opens up and everything’s yours right here, right now. You’ve probably heard the expression—All good things must come to an end. Well, this stage in the life of the buzz never heard anything close to that. This stage says, 'I will never end. I am indestructible. I will last fabulously forever.' And, of course, you believe it. To hell with tomorrow. To hell with all problems and barriers. Nothing matters but the Spectacular Now.

It's more like I was daydreaming when the Supreme Being told me what I should do with my life, and it's too late to ask what it was.

It's superb to be out in the early, early morning before the sun comes up. There's this sense of being super-alive. You're in on a secret that all the dull, sleeping people don't know about. Unlike them, you're alert and aware of existing right here in this precise moment between what happened and what's going to happen.

Life is spectacular. Forget the dark things. Take a drink and let time wash them away to where ever time washes away to.
