Quote by Kevin Wilson

“It was messy, to think of things as a narrative. In his life, he mostly didn't know if things were ending or starting. He was a kid, for crying out loud. Everything felt like a beginning and an ending at the exact same time. There was no middle. It was all beginning and endings, over and over, until you got old and had enough footage to determine what the story was about.”

“A tawdry realm of shifting, insecure employment and fleeting glimpses of high reward for little effort. A world where strings are pulled by complete cretins while those who work hard at the creative coalface are at the bottom of a steaming dunghill of vacuity, broken dreams, and empty promises.”

“Yet the moonlight sonatas of the world don't simply discharge our emotions; they elevate them. Also, it's only sad music that elicits exalted states of communion and awe. Music conveying other negative emotions, such as fear and anger, produces no such effect. Even happy music produces fewer psychological rewards than sad music, concluded Sachs, Damasio, and Habibi. Upbeat tunes make us want to dance around our kitchens and invite friends for dinner. But it's sad music that makes us want to touch the sky.”

“I don’t feel the need to argue now. Not because I am wrong, but because I have finally understood what is peace. I have reached that stage where proving myself to others is less important than protecting my mind. When someone misunderstands me, I don’t fight anymore. I just step back, stay quiet, and let time show the truth because some battles drain us more than they teach us and I choose to save my energy for those who understand me.”
