  • It’s the discipline to not get caught up in the moment (fads), people tend to get caught up in emotions and jump on the next hot thing. So for me just to have the discipline and the confidence in who I am, and if I go into a studio and I find my truth for the moment, there are a number of people who can relate to what I’m saying, and what I’m doing. Not because it’s the new thing, but because it’s my genuine emotion, and how I articulate the world

People have to accept that. I collect art, and I drink wine… Things that I like that I had never been exposed to. But I never said ‘I’m going to buy art to impress this crowd’. That’s just ridiculous to me. I don’t like my life like that, because how could you be happy with yourself?
  • Everybody can tell you how to do it, they never did it
  • People look at you strange, say you changed. Like you worked that hard to stay the same
  • You don’t just pick up and leave and leave me sick like that / You don’t throw away what we had just like that
  • I believe excellence is being able to perform at a high level over and over
  • I move forward, the only direction / Cant be scared to fail Search and perfection
  • Poet’s mission is to make words do more work than they normally do, to make them work on more than one level
  • Those who are successful overcome their fears and take action. Those who aren’t submit to their fears and live with regrets
  • I’m cut from a different cloth, my texture is the best fur
  • Do me a favor. Don’t do me no favors. I handle mine

  • Only God can judge me so I’m gone, either love me or leave me alone
  • There are 2 possibilities: 1 is that there’s more to life than the physical life, that our souls ‘will find and even higher place to dwell’ when this life is over. It that’s true, there’s no reason to fear failure or death. The other possibility is that this life is all there is. And if that’s true, then we have to really live it- we have to take it for everything it has and ‘die enormous’ instead of ‘living dormant’, as I said way back on ‘can I live’. Either way, fear is a waste of time
