That is why every man's story is important, eternal, sacred; that is why every man, as long as he lives and fulfills the will of nature, is wondrous, and worthy of every consideration.

You will never be able to experience everything. So, please, do poetical justice to your soul and simply experience yourself.

[NINJA:] Our father Who art in heaven Please watch over me 24/7 Please give me Something to believe in I'm either driven or crippled by these demons Sometimes it feels like the power I wield is a blessing and a curse And I wanna shine up on my brothers like the sun But when my light is gone Change to be ugly I wanna be happy I don't wanna hurt the ones I love They the ones who only getting hurt the most Please send your angels To save me from myself I wanna feel free I wanna feel please Well I can feel pleased If I'm feeling guilty Please forgive me For all my sins please And forgive them who keep sinning against me May my enemies live long so they can see me progress I know that my biggest enemy is me and that pain is weakness leaving my body And if I dance with the devil in the pale moonlight it's alright But deliver me from evil with my soul intact And no regrets Amen

We sense in music an extension of ourselves, a reminder of our own potential. Music is an aural manifestation of the Universal; the Unspoken. Through its language, we become one with... stars. With the condensation of Disorder. With the Math of Existence. With harmony, dissonance, resolution. It speaks importantly to the troubled, dispelling loneliness and discontent; and, sometimes spelling them out with empathetic honesty. It offers no excuses, no subterfuge; occasional perfection. Its voice discovers deep recesses of thought and feeling where truth implants itself. It transforms a map of the revolving, interdependent heavens into a heaven within - an Eden of unmasked joy and naked pain, of co-creation and shared destruction, of linkage and love. I've always dreamt that with my two hands I would touch the sky.

But entertainment has the merit not only of being better suited to helping sell goods; it is an effective vehicle for hidden ideological messages. Furthermore, in a system of high and growing inequality, entertainment is the contemporary equivalent of the Roman “games of the circus” that diverts the public from politics and generates a political apathy that is helpful to preservation of the status quo

Education is really aimed at just helping students get to the point where they can learn on their own, because that’s what you’re going to do for your life, not just absorb materials that are given to you from the outside and repeat it

You don't need a degree to work in the creative industries. but the creative industries do need people with degrees, people who want to challenge structures, that want to use depth of knowledge to create complex and spectacular art and find a way to make culture more responsive to the bristles of the real world.
