As we get more technically driven, the importance of people becomes more than it’s ever been before. You have to utilize who you are in your work. Nobody else can do that. Nobody else can pull from your background, from your parents, your upbringing, your whole life experience. If you allow that to happen, it’s really the only way you can do some unique work. And you’re going to enjoy the work a lot more as well.
--David Carson
. . . because a true revolution has no allies. It’s just that simple. Because a true revolution, not a fast one, not a quick one, not a fashionable one, but a real fucking revolution is at its core spiritual. It is a complete decimation of one’s priorities, beliefs, and way of living. And reconstruction in the spirit of, uh . . . you have to create a new god. Or gods. Or whatever you can. But it is imperative that you believe in something. Something greater than yourself. All right? And it can’t be the ocean, or your favorite song. And it can’t be the movement, or the people, or the words. You’ve got to believe in the poetry. Because everything else in your life will fail you. Including yourself. You hear me? That’s where you are. You’re sick. Your whole system’s on the verge of collapse, and the addict in you is trying to sell you on the same shit that got you sick in the first place. And if you keep going the way that you’re going, you’ll rot from the inside until you cave in and die. Your only hope is a revolution. But a real fucking revolution, inside and out. But you gotta see it through.You can’t half-ass this shit. You just have to commit to it, every single day. And know that you can always do it better. And be better. Because who knows—one day you might succeed. I don’t underestimate anyone. Stranger things have happened.

Prime Time said it best--you look good, you play good. You play good, they pay good.

The rebellion of art is a daily rebellion against the state of living death routinely called real life.

My family seems exactly like an archipelago—all part of the same whole but still separate and alone. And always drifting slowly apart.

Abigail Disney, heiress to the Disney fortune, on being raised with wealth.
Frank: OK, it’s time we had a little chat. V, could we get two more of these?You’re a bad drunk.
Fiona: Oh well if that isn’t the pot callin’ the kettle black.
Frank: No, no, no—I’m a good drunk. Makes me happy. When you drink, you get mean. If it wasn’t for me, Lip would be dead right now.
Fiona: Are you seriously telling me to stop drinkin’?
Frank: I would never say that to my worst enemy. No. I am telling you there are good drunks and bad drunks. A good drunk is fun. A bad drunk wants to have a fight. A good drunk lives in the present. A bad drunk is thinking about yesterday. It’s all about gas and the breaks. Bottoms up. How you feel?
Fiona: Great.
Frank: Want do do another one?
Fiona: Yeah.
Frank: No! You feel good, right? So take a break, Driver 8. Take your foot off the gas for a couple of seconds. Coast. Alcohol was created to distract us from existential dread. Human beings are the only species that knows of its own mortality, and I gotta say we do a pretty good job dealing with that fact.
Tommy: Thank God for alcohol.
Frank: Can you imagine? Having to live with impending death sober? Look at Lip—when’s the last time you saw him smile? Me? I’ve always been the most fun member of this family. You know why? Because I get it. Sobriety is a fool’s game.

“After the Hurricane, Bahamas”
--Winslow Homer
“Power is a curious thing, my Lord. Are you fond of riddles?”
“Why? Am I about to hear one?”
“Three great men sit in a room: a king, a priest, and a rich man. Between them stands a common sellsword. Each great man bids the sellsword kill the other two. Who lives? Who dies?”
“Depends on the sellsword.”
“Does it? He has neither crown nor gold. Nor, favor with the gods.”
“He has a sword, the power of life and death.”
“But if its swordsmen who rule, why do we pretend kings hold all the power? When Ned Stark lost his head, who was truly responsible? Joffrey? The executioner? Or something else?
“I’ve decided I don’t like riddles.”
“Power resides where men believe it resides. It’s a trick. A shadow on the wall. And a very small man can cast a very large shadow.”
—from Game of Thrones
