"I'm a big old romantic."

-- Colin Farrell

“There are those, however, that are not frightened of grief: dropping deep into the sorrow, they find therein a necessary elixir to the numbness. When they encounter one another, when they press their foreheads against the bark of a centuries-old tree...their eyes well with tears that fall easily to the ground. The soil needs this water. Grief is but a gate, and our tears a kind of key opening a place of wonder thats been locked away. Suddenly we notice a sustaining resonance between the drumming heart within our chest and the pulse rising from the ground”
“The grand old lady of bluegrass? Well, wouldn't that be a wonderful title to have? I hope I do enough to earn it some day”
“Sun-bleached bones were most wonderful against the blue - that blue that will always be there as it is now after all man's destruction is finished.”

“It occurred to me that I was unhappy. And it didnâ€™t feel so very terrible. No urgency, nothing. I could slip out of my life on a slow wave like thisâ€”it didnâ€™t matter. I donâ€™t have to be happy. All I have to do is hold on to something and wait.”

“The house should derive dignity from the master, not the master from the house.”
“The last 10% of game design is really what separates the good games from the great games. It's what I call the clean-up phase of game design. Here's where you make sure all the elements look great. The game should look good, feel good, sound good, play good.”
“But the safety of the world, in some sense, depends on your saying no to inhumane ideas. Standing up for one's own integrity makes you no friends. It is costly. Yet defiance of the mob, in the service of that which is right, is one of the highest expressions of courage I know.”
