Mikhail Lermontov

“All things are linked with one another, and this oneness is sacred; there is nothing that is not interconnected with everything else. For things are interdependent, and they combine to form this universal order. There is only one universe made up of all things, and one creator who pervades them; there is one substance and one law, namely, common reason in all thinking creatures, and all truth is one-if, as we believe, there is only one path of perfection for all beings who share the same mind.”
“I have olive skin, so if I'm in the sun for even 15 minutes, I turn brown.”
“Stand firm in the Lord. Stand firm and let Him fight your battle. Do not try to fight alone.”

“I can totally identify with the younger kids. I'll never do what Jon Spencer did to me when I was 16, though. I made a tape with my friends and I put it onstage right near his mic stand by the pedal board and he pulled it out with his foot, kicked it to the center of the stage, looked me in the eye and stomped it to pieces.”
“What, exactly, is the happiness that can be earned by turning away from reality?”
“They say behind mountains are more mountains.”
“It's hard to write music for specific things, because I'm always writing just to write.”
