Quote by De philosopher DJ Kyos

“Sometimes you ruin a good thing you have going for yourself by being petty, bitter, arrogant, disrespectful, acting like you don’t care, or being overly ambitious; other times, you ruin it by listening to others.”

“Many people who lack genuine kindness and a good heart often adopt a Christian persona rather than embracing Christianity itself. To them, it becomes more of a lifestyle or status symbol. It helps them appear likable and seem like decent, innocent individuals, even when they are not. These are often the same people who judge others harshly, viewing everyone as a potential threat or as someone sent to tempt or destroy them.They label anyone who lives differently as a sinner, unworthy of God's love. They hold themselves in high regard while thinking little of others. Instead of praying for sinners to repent, they simply condemn those they dislike, assuming they are working for the devil. They may be good at quoting scripture, but their actions consistently contradict the values they claim to uphold. 1 John 1:8”

“As I fall asleep, I think about Ginny and the look she gave me at church, and it makes me feel that familiar sinking in my gut-the way I've felt every time I've seen Nader McMillan in the hall since I was seven. He didn't even need to say anything to me. Just his existence would make me fell powerless and stupid. The difference, I guess, is that he gained his power by humiliating me. Thurns out when someone you actually give a shit about turns on you, it's even more powerful.”

“So now here we were with David's second big bout against whatever it was, and it had pretty well gotten him. He was taking a lot of morphine for the paid and looked terrible, although the spirit was still in his eyes, weak as it was. "Do you have any advice for me on my music going forward?" I asked David. "Just make sure to have as much of you in the recording as you can," he said. "Stay simple. No one gives a shit about anything else." He tole me to keep it simple and focused, have as much of my playing and singing as possible, and not to hide it with other things. Don't embellish it with other people I don't need or hide it in any way. Simple and focused. That is what I took away. He didn't exactly say that, but I got the message. I have failed to do that in some instances. "Be great or be gon," his famous phrase, choes in my head. I have to remember that for sure. Damn. So I left the apartment after a hug. It was devastating. He died a week later. He wanted to go. His body was all fucked up and it was not easy. His tenacious spirit would not let him go.”

“I lit a fire and sat there in my rocking chair. We lit a candle for him. It was as simple as that. I knew that what I had done may have been a catalyst in Danny's death, but I also knew that there was really nothing else I could have done. I can never really lose that feeling. I wasn't guilty, but I felt responsible in a way. It's part of what I do. Managing the band and taking care of the music is very painful at times. It's a sad story. A moment I will never forget, years I can never replace, music the world will never hear, all gone in the turning of a second.”
