“The cause of all the blunders committed by man arises from this excessive self-love. For the lover is blinded by the object loved; so that he passes a wrong judgment on what is just, good and beautiful, thinking that he ought always to honor what belongs to himself in preference to truth. For he who intends to be a great man ought to love neither himself nor his own things, but only what is just, whether it happens to be done by himself, or by another.” ThinkingMenSelfDoneHappensBeautifulCausesObjectsOughtSelf LoveLoversHonorJudgmentCommittedAriseGreat MenPreferenceBlindedBlunders Author:Plato

“Did it ever strike you that goodness is not merely a beautiful thing, but by far the most beautiful thing in the whole world? So that nothing is to be compared for value with goodness; that riches, honor, power, pleasure, learning, the whole world and all in it, are not worth having in comparison with being good; and the utterly best thing for a person is to be good, even though they were never to be rewarded for it.” WorldPersonsWholeBeautifulValuesPleasureHonorGoodnessBe GoodRichesStrikesWhole WorldBest ThingsComparisonBeautiful Things Author:Charles Kingsley

“If you're recording the song on your four-track in your kitchen, when you finished writing the song, you're recording, and it's cool, and honor that. And maybe that's the version that should be released. And if you're recording the song again, it shouldn't be because there's a version you love that you're chasing.

And be in it and take advantage of the buzz and energy of "I'm getting to record right now!" It's such a beautiful and cool privilege.” WritingBeautifulSongEnergyHonorOkayKitchen Author:Jon Brion
