- History Is Accumulating (Part 2)
In this video, I say the word "the" ten times. I use the letter "e" one hundred twenty-four times. I use the letter "j" only once. But there's one letter - only one - that I never use at all. Can you figure out what it is? No, you quiet, zippy fox, it's not the usual suspects. Also, I say the word "deified" four times in this video. To be deified means to be made into a god. But is to create a god to be a god yourself? Does it go both ways? Well, "deified" reversed is still "deified." Cabbage.

Based on my someday goal, what's the ONE Thing I can do in the next five years to be on track to achieve it?

The Bee Movie
- Bee Movie
You know, there is a Larry King in the real world - He has suspenders, a desk, a TV show, different color lights behind him, and a marquee at the bottom of the screen saying what was just said even though you just heard him.
Thomas Jefferson
- In matters of principle...
In matters of principle, stand like a rock; in matters of taste, swim with the current. Give up money, give up fame, give up science, give up earth itself and all it contains, rather than do an immoral act. And never suppose that in any situation or under any circumstances, it is best for you to do a dishonorable thing. Whenever you are to do a thing, though it can never be known but to yourself, ask yourself how you would act were all the world looking at you, and act accordingly.

- History Is Accumulating (Part 1)
If you wanna overthrow the US government, all you have to do is wait. Because right now, there are eleven days each year that the US recognizes as federal holidays. The first four were codified in eighteen-seventy, but since then, we have accumulated seven more. That's a rate of exactly one new federal holiday every fourteen years. At that rate, by the year sixty-nine-eighty, every single day will be a federal holiday, and government employees will have every day off.

He walked down the orchestra hall after getting his violin at the end of the day. I don't remember what his violin case looked like. He looked small and unassuming.
David Bowie
- Changes
And these children that you spit on as they try to change their worlds are immune to your consultations. They're quite aware of what they're going through.
Richard Siken
- Landscape with a blur of conquerors
Why take more than we need? Because we can. Deep footprint, it leaves a hole. You'd break your heart to make it bigger, so why not crack your skull when the mind swells. A thought bigger than your own head... I shovel the color into our faces, I shovel our faces into our faces. They look like me. I move them around. I prefer to blame others, it's easier.
I was in the hallway between the orchestra room and the auditorium, kneeling and unpacking my violin. He came bursting out of the orchestra room, and I looked up, and he looked down, and I looked horrible.
Silent Hill 2
- Mary's Letter
In my restless dreams, I see that town. Silent Hill. You promised me you'd take me there again someday. But you never did. Well, I'm alone there now, in our 'special place', waiting for you. Waiting for you to come to see me...
A-ha Take on Me
- Take on Me
So needless to say, I'm odds and ends but I'll be stumblin' away, slowly learning that life is okay. Say after me, "It's no better to be safe than sorry."
Henry David Thoreau
- Walden - Economy
When I wrote the following pages, or rather the bulk of them, I lived alone, in the woods, a mile from any neighbor, in a house which I had built myself, on the shore of Walden Pond, in Concord, Massachusetts, and earned my living by the labor of my hands only. I lived there two years and two months. At present I am a sojourner in civilized life again.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
- I love idleness.
I love idleness. I love to busy myself about trifles, to begin a hundred things and not finish one of them, to come and go as my fancy bids me, to change my plan every moment, to follow a fly in all its circlings, to try and uproot a rock to see what is underneath, eagerly begin on a ten years' task and to give it up after ten minutes: in short to fritter away the whole day inconsequentially and incoherently, and to follow nothing but the whim of the moment.
Music: An Appreciation
- Chromatic harmonies
Often found in romantic music, the use of chords containing tones not found in the prevailing major or minor scale, but included in the chromatic scale.
Tablerone
- DOSE
Into the eyes of fire, into the gaze ablaze, into the burning light of his rays. Into the source of wisdom, beyond the Bible lies, into the endless depth of his eyes.
Jorge Rivera-Herrans
- Not Sorry for Loving You
So if I pushed you. Or if I came on too strong. Or if I ambushed you, for that, I'll say I was wrong. And if you hate me then I am sorry my love's too much for you. But I'm not sorry for loving you.

So I went to the store, right? You'll never guess what happened, I met a doctor! Wow! He looked in my cart and said that there weren't any vegetables in my cart. I said, "So what? You can't doctor me." Let's just say... I got doctored.

- Happiness
Happiness is something which we can't describe in words it can only be felt from someone's expression of a smile. Likewise, happiness is a signal or identification of good and prosperous life. Happiness is very simple to feel and difficult to describe. Moreover, happiness comes from within and no one can steal your happiness. Every day we see and meet people who look happy from the outside but deep down they are broken and are sad from the inside.

At one of the first music therapy club meetings, the attendance sheet was being passed around. I sat behind him, and he twisted around to pass the sheet to me, and we made eye contact for a moment. His handwriting looked like a font.
Chelsea
- Hart of Dixie
"He either loves you or he doesn't. Giving away the milk for free only confuses you." My favorite line by Grandma Betty from Hart of Dixie. I feel like there may be someone out there who needs to read that...
