It requires a certain kind of mind to see beauty in a hamburger bun. yet is it any more unusual to find grace in the texture and softly carved silhouette of a bun than to reflect lovingly on the hackles of a fishing fly? or the arrangements and textures on a butterfly's wing? not if you are a mcdonalds's man.

More From Ray Kroc

Why is mcdonalds still counting? how insecure is this company? 40 million, 80 billion million jillion killion tillion... who cares? is anyone really impressed by that any more? ooh, 89 billion sold? all right, i'll have one! i'm satisfied! i'd like to tell the ceo of mcdonalds, "look. we all get it, okay? you've sold a lot of hamburgers. whatever the number is, just put up a sign, 'mcdonalds: we're doing very well.' we are tired of hearing about every goddamn one of them."
Tired Insecure Numbers
A hamburger is warm and fragrant and juicy. a hamburger is soft and nonthreatening. it personifies the great mother herself who has nourished us from the beginning. a hamburger is an icon of layered circles, the circle being at once the most spiritual and the most sensual of shapes. a hamburger is companionable and faintly erotic. the nipple of the goddess, the bountiful belly-ball of eve. you are what you think you eat.

The apocalypse is now! americans know this, that the only hope is the flying saucers. do you know how i see the world? like a person who is dying. it's a worm who is dying to make a butterfly. we must not stop the worm from dying, we must help the worm to die to help the butterfly to be born. we need to dance with death. this world is dying, but very well. we will make a big, big enormous butterfly. you and i will be the first movements in the wings of the butterfly because we are speaking like this.
Butterfly Wings Flying
Awakening is not a thing. it is not a goal, not a concept. it is not something to be attained. it is a metamorphosis. if the caterpillar thinks about the butterfly it is to become, saying ‘and then i shall have wings and antennae,’ there will never be a butterfly. the caterpillar must accept its own disappearance in its transformation. when the marvelous butterfly takes wing, nothing of the caterpillar remains.
Butterfly Thinking Wings
In fact, quite a lot of what i do has to do with sound texture, and, you can't notate that. you can't notate the sound of "st. elmo's fire." there's no way of writing that down. that's because musical notation arose at a time when sound textures were limited. if you said violins and woodwind that defined the sound texture; if i say synthesizer and guitar it means nothing - you're talking about 28,000 variables.
