One of my favorite shows to watch is Sundance's Iconoclasts. It's a real pleasure to see a bit into the worlds of people I admire and respect, their philosophies, hopes, the things they hold close.
I love what Eddie Vedder said about music and it's affect on the passage of time, I think we all can attest to this, it's what makes music as amazing at is.

- Love the instant I realize, our hearts beat the same.
Stand upright! Speak thy thoughts! Declare the truth thou hast, that all may share! Be bold! Proclaim it everywhere! They only live who dare. - Lewis Morris
There is need of kinder treatment to be given by us all, There is need that we remember when someone may err and fall, That within the hidden motive lies the ill or lies good. We would treat each other better if we only understood.
If we knew the cares of others - knew the trails and knew the strain, Under which they may be living - knew their losses and bitter pain, We would show a better spirit; I am sure that each one could. We would always speak more kindly if we only understood. - Anonymous

This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. - Shakespeare
Whenever you cultivate a thought, Remember it will trace, With certain touch in pictured form, A story on your face.
Whenever you dwell upon a thought, Remember it will roll, Into your being and become, A fiber of your soul.
Whenever you send out a thought, Remember it will be,
A force throughout the universe, For all eternity.

When you expect nothing, you have everything.
A man loses contact with reality if he is not surrounded by his books. - Francois Mitterrand
What is Water?
There are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says, "Morning boys. How's the water?"
And the two young fish swim on for a bit and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes, "What the hell is water?"
- David Foster Wallace

Even after all this time, The Sun never says to the Earth, "You owe me." Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky. - Hafez
Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing: the last of human freedoms to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way. - Viktor Frankl
