More From John Gay

A guy's calling to say he's failing algebra ii. just as a point of practice, i say, kill yourself. a woman calls and says her kids won't behave. without missing a beat, i tell her, kill yourself. a man calls to say his car won't start. kill yourself. a woman calls to ask what time the late movie starts. kill yourself. she asks, "isn't this 555-1327? is this the moorehouse cineplex? i say, kill yourself. kill yourself. kill yourself.
Kids Men Practice
It seems to me that our three basic needs, for food and security and love, are so mixed and mingled and entwined that we cannot straightly think of one without the others. so it happens that when i write of hunger, i am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth and the love of it and the hunger for it… and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied… and it is all one.
Food Writing Reality
You can't kill love. you can't even kill it with hate. you can kill in-love, and loving, and even loveliness. you can kill them all, or numb them into dense, leaden regret, but you can't kill love itself. love is the passionate search for a truth other than your own; and once you feel it, honestly and completely, love is forever. every act of love, every moment of the heart reaching out, is a part of the universal good: it's a part of god, or what we call god, and it can never die.
Regret Hate Love You
It's unwise to pay too much, but it's worse to pay too little. when you pay too much, you lose a little money - that's all. when you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. the common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot - it can't be done. if you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.
Motivational Running Business
If your skin is crawling, pay attention. if something doesn’t feel right, pay attention. if the hairs on the back of your neck prickle, if your gut clenches up, if a wave of wrongness washes over you, if your heart starts beating faster, pay, pay, pay attention. do not second-guess yourself or rationalize anything that impedes your safety. our instincts are the animal inside of our humanness, warning us of danger.

Security isn't what i hunger for. i hunger for change. i hunger for connection.

What stuns me most about contemporary politics is not even that the system has been so badly corrupted by money. it is that so few people get the connection between their lives and what the bozos do in washington and our state capitols.

I'm not a goddess, for crying out loud. i'm a regular person who took feminism - which i have a deep connection to - and mixed it with music, which i really love to do.
