In the world i notice persons are nearly always stressed and have no time...i don't know how persons with jobs do the jobs and all the living as well...i guess the time gets spread very thin like butter all over the world, the roads and houses and playgrounds and stores, so there's only a little smear of time on each place, then everyone has to hurry on to the next bit.

In harlem, for instance, all of the stores are owned by white people, all of the buildings are owned by white people. the black people are just there - paying rent, buying the groceries; but they don't own the stores, clothing stores, food stores, any kind of stores; don't even own the homes that they live in. they are all owned by outsiders, and for these run-down apartment dwellings, the black man in harlem pays more money than the man down in the rich park avenue section.

We are here to witness the creation and to abet it. we are here to notice each thing so each thing gets noticed. together we notice not only each mountain shadow and each stone on the beach but, especially, we notice the beautiful faces and complex natures of each other. we are here to bring to consciousness the beauty and power that are around us and to praise the people who are here with us. we witness our generation and our times. we watch the weather. otherwise, creation would be playing to an empty house.

I do not think stress is a legitimate topic of conversation, in public anyway. no one ever wants to hear how stressed out anyone else is, because most of the time everyone is stressed out. going on and on in detail about how stressed out i am isn’t conversation. it’ll never lead anywhere. no one is going to say, “wow, mindy, you really have it especially bad. i have heard some stories of stress, but this just takes the cake.

Record stores are the backbone of the recorded music culture. it's where we go to network, browse around, and find new songs to love. the stores whose staff live for music have spread the word about exciting new things faster and with more essence than either radio or the press. any artist that doesn't support the wonderful ma and pa record stores across america is contributing to our own extinction.

She comes to me when she wants to be fed. and after i feed her -- guess what -- she's off to wherever she wants to be in the house, until the next time she gets hungry. she's smart enough to know she can't feed herself. she's actually a very smart cat. she gets loved. she gets adoration. she gets petted. she gets fed. and she doesn't have to do anything for it, which is why i say this cat's taught me more about women, than anything my whole life.
