"I'm really glad my food comes murdered."

“I Write those words in steel for anything else not set in metal cannot be trusted”
“Mac Rebennack, better known as Dr. John, once told me that when a brass band plays at a small club back up in one of the neighborhoods, itâ€™s as if the audienceâ€”dancing, singing to the refrains, laughingâ€”is part of the band.”

“That is why faith, wherever it develops into hope, causes not rest but unrest, not patience but impatience. It does not calm the unquiet heart, but is itself this unquiet heart in man. Those who hope in Christ can no longer put up with reality as it is, but begin to suffer under it, to contradict it. Peace with God means conflict with the world, for the goad of the promised future stabs inexorably into the flesh of every unfulfilled present.”
“When public figures think they can open a business even though they've got no business experience, it's a bad idea.”
“Thoughts disentangle themselves when they pass through the lips and fingertips.”
“How we educate the mind will change with the times; how we cultivate the heart is and will remain timeless.”
“I like the authentic object, and I have no problem paying sixty dollars for a T-shirt if it fits me really well and it's really well made. I like unassuming clothes.”
“On an incredibly simplistic level, you can think of depression as occurring when your cortex thinks an abstract thought and manages to convince the rest of the brain that this is as real as a physical stressor.”
