"New York State of Mind, that one stood out. It was a phrase that I heard my dad say all the time with his friends, and I thought it was the most sophisticated, brilliant phrase. It doesn't matter who you are, what race, ethnicity, whatever religion you come from. In New York, you're in New York. That's the religion. And here's a song for you. It's soothing, it's elegant, and, you know, it's the anthem for New York." - Nas

Thinking about Annie Dillard’s “How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives” and Joan Didion’s “Every day is all there is.”

Thinking about Mary Oliver’s "Each of us is given only so many mornings to do it — to look around and love” and Ilya Kaminsky’s “Is it foolish to speak of little joys that occur in the middle of tragedy? It is our humanity. Whatever we have left of it. We must not deny it to ourselves.”

“I learned that just beneath the surface there’s another world, and still different worlds as you dig deeper. I knew it as a kid, but I couldn’t find the proof. It was just a feeling. There is goodness in blue skies and flowers, but another force - a wild pain and decay - also accompanies everything.”

— David Lynch

I shall pass through this world but once, any good thing therefore I can do, or any kindness I can show to any human being, let me do it now, let me not defer it or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again.
