"I want to work and be happy."

-- Rickie Lee Jones

“As for me... I'm fine. I have bad dreams, but I never saw Mister Duck again. I play video games. I smoke a little dope. I got my thousand-yard stare. I carry a lot of scares. I like the way that sounds. I carry a lot of scares.”
“One of the strange things about living in the world is that it is only now and then one is quite sure one is going to live forever and ever and ever.”
“Censorship is the commonest social blasphemy because it is mostly concealed, built into us by indolence, self-interest and cowardice.”
“The trouble is that we do not have the power of God in a full manifestation because of our finite thoughts, but as we go on and let God have His way, there is no limit to what our limitless God will do in response to a limitless faith. But you will never get anywhere except you are in constant pursuit of all the power of God.”
“...nuclear threats and nuclear weapons are the last argument of weak, stressed and irresponsible politicians. People must act very quicky to stop the movement to nuclear war.”
“I want to be remembered much more by a total vision than a few perfect single pictures.”
“I'm getting older, and it happens. You don't care as much. I don't care about too much anymore. I've got to think about that a little bit.”
“The idea that the story is true is more important than being able to prove that it's true.”
