“He who is a beginner on the way must not be brought to practise the commandments by kindness alone, but must more often be induced to continue the struggle by being rigorously reminded of God's judgment. In this way he will not only be moved by love to desire what is divine, but will be moved by fear to avoid what is evil. For 'I will sing to Thee, O Lord, of mercy and judgment' (Ps. 101:1 LXX). He will sing to God charmed by love, and steeled by fear he will have strength for the song.”

“To everyone who says this is wrong to feel like this say, 'I was born this way baby.”
“I spend an extraordinary amount of time in my car, so I can justify the expense. That's the only extravagance in my life - it's my car.”
“I smoked this joint and then it hit me. I thought, what you gotta do is play your own simply blues.”
“I don't read the papers, I don't gamble, I don't even know what day it is!”
