More From Samuel Johnson

I wonder why anyone would hesitate to be generous with their writing. i mean, if you really want to make a living, go to wall street and trade oil futures ... we're writers. we're doing something that is inherently a generous act. we're exposing ourselves to the muse and to the things that frighten us. why do that if you're not willing to be generous? and paradoxically, almost ironically, it turns out that the more generous you are, the more money you make. but that's secondary. for me, the privilege of being generous is why i get to do this.

Passion makes the old medicine new: passion lops off the bough of weariness. passion is the elixir that renews: how can there be weariness when passion is present? oh, don't sigh heavily from fatigue: seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!

Curiosity is, in great and generous minds, the first passion and the last; and perhaps always predominates in proportion to the strength of the contemplative faculties. he who easily comprehends all that is before him, and soon exhausts any single subject, is always eager for new inquiries; and in proportion as the intellectual eye takes in a wider prospect, it must be gratified with variety, by more rapid flights and bolder excursions.

You cannot lead without passion. passion causes things to move, and passion creates a force multiplier. passion actually covers a multitude of sins. real entreleaders care deeply, and that is basically what passion is. passion is not yelling or being wild; it is simply caring deeply.
Real Moving Passion
When the last sea is sailed and last shallow charted, when the last field is reaped and the last harvest stored, when the last fire is out and the last guest departed grant the last prayer that i pray, be good to me, o lord.
Death Prayer Fire
Passion is what makes life interesting, what ignites our soul, drives our curiosity, fuels our love and carries our friendship, stimulates our intellect, and pushes our limit.... a passion for life is contagious and uplifting. passion cuts both ways.... those that make you feel on top of the world are equally able to turnit upside down.

There's nothing like music to relieve the soul and uplift it.
Music Uplifting Soul
The 'public' is a phantom, the phantom of an opinion supposed to exist in a vast number of persons who have no effective interrelation and though the opinion is not effectively present in the units. such an opinion is spoken of as 'public opinion,' a fiction which is appealed to by individuals and by groups as supporting their special views. it is impalpable, illusory, transient; "'tis here, 'tis there, 'tis gone"; a nullity which can nevertheless for a moment endow the multitude with power to uplift or destroy.

Love for one's motherland is one of the most powerful and uplifting feelings. it manifested itself in full in the brotherly support to the people of crimea and sevastopol, when they resolutely decided to return home, this event will remain a very important epoch in domestic history forever.
