We all know of course, that we should never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever fiddle around in any way with electrical equipment. never.

A man of my acquaintance once wrote a poem called "the road less traveled", describing a journey he took through the woods along a path most travelers never used. the poet found that the road less traveled was peaceful but quite lonely, and he was probably a bit nervous as he went along, because if anything happened on the road less traveled, the other travelers would be on the road more frequently traveled and so couldn't hear him as he cried for help. sure enough, that poet is dead.

Prison was a blessing. going to prison was the greatest thing that happened to me. it showed me that i wasn't infallible. it showed me that i was just human. it showed me that i can be back with my ghetto brothers i grew up with and have a good time. it taught me to cool out. it taught me patience. it taught me that i didn't ever want to lose my freedom. it taught me that drugs bring on the devil. it taught me to grow up.

I have traveled to florida, i have traveled to georgia, i have traveled to california, you and i both know that there are millions of undocumented workers that work hard, sweat soil every day to put the food we eat on our table. that's not a myth, that's a reality. why don't we let them come with visas to this country so that then we don't have people using that border.

I think that every country presents its own particular challenges, different cultures, different histories, different religions, different people. and different ethnic make-ups in those countries present different challenges.

I have traveled to a lot of places, and you look at another young person who lives under very different circumstances than you but has the same dreams or the same interests or might be better at what i do than what i do. but i was born in a different place, and she was born in a different place. just for that alone, you're kind of inherently given opportunity. that's something that i'm very grateful for, but i'm also very aware of.

Similar Quotes

If every day you practice walking and sitting meditation and generate the energy of mindfulness and concentration and peace, you are a cell in the body of the new buddha. this is not a dream but is possible today and tomorrow.

God wills, man dreams, the work is born.

There are dreams stronger than death. men and women die holding these dreams.

Tie your heart at night to mine, love, and both will defeat the darkness like twin drums beating in the forest against the heavy wall of wet leaves. night crossing: black coal of dream that cuts the thread of earthly orbs with the punctuality of a headlong train that pulls cold stone and shadow endlessly. love, because of it, tie me to a purer movement, to the grip on life that beats in your breast, with the wings of a submerged swan, so that our dream might reply to the sky's questioning stars with one key, one door closed to shadow.
