“Cows sometimes wear an expression resembling wonderment arrested on its way to becoming a question.

“Music is a spiritual expression of what's in your heart. Music as a way of getting rich is a pretty new thing, and I often wonder if the mega-bucks glitzy atmosphere is making the quality of music suffer. You have to work really hard to get around that and remember why you're in it in the first place: because you have to be. It's like an addiction. You can't go a day without picking up your guitar. To me, the only commercial goals that are really valid are, 'Boy, I wish I didn't have to go to work. I wish I could do this all the time.'” IfsWayFirstsHeartHardRememberSpiritualSufferingWishGoalQualityWonderBoysRichExpressionMusic IsGuitarAddictionAtmosphereNew ThingsBucksGet RichMega Author:Trey Anastasio
“Ask a scientist what he conceives the scientific method to be and he will adopt an expression that is at once solemn and shifty-eyed: solemn, because he feels he ought to declare an opinion; shifty-eyed, because he is wondering how to conceal the fact that he has no opinion to declare.” FeelsFactsAsksWonderOpinionExpressionOughtScientistMethodSolemnScientific Method Book:Induction and intuition in scientific thought Source: Induction and intuition in scientific thought
“What a wonder is it, that two natures infinitely distant, should be more intimately united than anything in the world; and yet without any confusion! That the same person should have both a glory and a grief; an infinite joy in the Deity, and an inexpressible sorrow in the humanity!

“All art is a gift. It is first of all a gift that the maker can do it. It is then a gift to someone else, whether they pay for it or not. The wonder of it is that we cannot get the production of these gifts stopped. Art is life seeking itself. It is our intractable expressions of love for the beauties, ideas and epiphanies we regularly find. I framed the painting. It's now hanging in our den.

“Seeing a photograph of myself is often pretty jarring. Why is it that the vision I see of myself in a photo is so different than the one I see in a mirror - not to mention the "self" that I see in my mind's eye? Pondering it can pretty easily cast me into a vortex of self-doubt, wondering how the me that people experience - my voice, my personality, my creative expression - is regarded without my knowledge.” PeopleMindDifferentSelfEyeVoiceWonderVisionCreativeDoubtSeeingExpressionPersonalityMirrorsPhotographCastsPonderingSelf-doubtVortexCreative Expression Author:Keith Murray
