People tend to complicate their own lives$$$ as if living weren't already complicated enough.

If in life we are surrounded by death$$$ then in the health of our intellect we are surrounded by madness.

We feel that even if all possible scientific questions be answered$$$ the problems of life have still not been touched at all.

Some stories are true that never happened.

Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race$$$ religion$$$ or political views$$$ that place must at that moment become the center of the universe.

All serious daring starts from within.

The proper function of a government is to make it easy for the people to do good$$$ and difficult for them to do evil.

Sarcasm and jokes were often the bottle in which clinical depressives sent out their most plangent screams for someone to care and help them.

Everything want to be loved. Us sing and dance and holler$$$ just trying to be loved.

We are a people. A people do not throw their geniuses away. And if they are thrown away$$$ it is our duty as artists and as witnesses for the future to collect them again for the sake of our children$$$ and$$$ if necessary$$$ bone by bone.
