    "The saddest thing is if at the end of your life you say 'I wish I did' or 'Why didn't I?' You have to go after it with full gusto in life, whatever it is, go after the stupidest whim, because you pass by once." - Gene Simmons

    Some of my favorite quotes:
    "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me." -Hunter S. Thompson
    "We deem those happy who from the experience of life have learned to bear its ills without being overcome by them." ~ Carl Jung
    "If we are facing in the right direction, all we have to do is keep on walking.” -Buddhist Proverb
    "He who is of calm and happy nature will hardly feel the pressure of age, but to him who is of an opposite disposition youth and age are equally a burden." - Plato
    "Taking joy in living is a woman's best cosmetic." ~Rosalind Russell
    "Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it." -Soren Kierkegaard
    "I am not interested in money. I just want to be wonderful."-Marilyn Monroe
    "In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different." -Coco Chanel
    "A successful person is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others throw at him."- David Brinkley
    "It's not who wants to sleep with you. It's who wants to sleep with you again - David Lee Roth
    "I don't want to fight anymore. I just want to lay in the grass and be cool. " The Evil Wizard Glick, last episode of The Monkees
    "People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul. -Carl Gustav Jung
    "I never felt sadder in my life. L.A. is the loneliest and most brutal of American cities; New York gets god-awful cold in the winter, but there's a feeling of wacky comradeship somewhere in some streets. L.A. is a jungle."-Jack Kerouac, "On the Road"
    "Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much." - Oscar Wilde
    "Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself."-Henry Miller
    “Aiming for the moon and missing it is better than aiming for the ditch and hitting it”
    "Boys may come and boys may go/ And that’s all right you see/ Experience has made me rich/ And now they’re after me" - Madonna, Material Girl
    When Tug McGraw was asked whether he preferred artificial turf or grass, he replied: "I don't know, I never smoked Astroturf."


    "Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death."-Anais Nin

    "Cast your pearls before swine/leaves you nothing every time..."

    Bring your soul
    Bring what love flows
    Lay down old ways
    See a new way
    See me
    Opening doors for you
    Warm draft enters
    Passions are safe
    To let be
    So let me kiss what’s inside you
    Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
    Let me listen to what others can’t stand
    I’ll appreciate that you are true and honest to they self
    I, your friend will be a safe place to come clean
    A place for you to be whole
    No judgments
    Only fulfillment of the soul
    Expose all your elements
    Your ungrounded earth
    The blowing of your winds of time
    What simmers and what rages to a fire
    Let go with me
    I’ll help you harness your future
    With me you can scream in my soul
    And only I will understand
    Your secrets are safe with me

    A passage from my best selling book BRUSH STROKES @ Amazon.com
    “A man may admire what a woman does for a living; he may admire her education and social circle. He may be enamored with her physical beauty, but he only truly falls in love, with the softest and warmest part of her, her soul.”

    Glad you dug that Nietzsche quote, and doubly glad to hear that you dug the tracks off our new album. I don't think we'll be troubling the chart-compilers any time soon, but that's the way these things go!
