"The shower is my time to open up my operatic chops, because of the enormous echo. You sound five times as big in the shower, so I break into some "Nessun Dorma" [from Puccini 's Turandot] or Pearl Jam. You've got to go big when you're in the shower. There's no half-singing in the shower, you're either a rock star or an opera diva."

-- Josh Groban

“FAITH. No one word personifies the absolute worst and most wicked properties of religion better than that. Faith is mind-rot. Itâ€™s the poison that destroys critical thinking, undermines evidence, and leads people into lives dedicated to absurdity. Itâ€™s a parasite regarded as a virtue. I speak as a representative of the scientific faction of atheism: itâ€™s one thing we simply cannot compromise on. Faith is wrong.”
“What we experience is our own concept of things. That is why no two people see quite the same world, and why, in many cases, different people see such different worlds. To put it another way, we make our own world by the way in which we think; for we really do live in a world of our own thoughts.”
