"It's just that a lot of songs that are popular right now, they don't have any meaning"

-- Elliott Smith

“I dont have a dishwasher, and I hate washing dishes.”
“The shortest definition of religion: interruption.”
“In daily practice, the word brand stands as a surrogate for the word reputation. In fact, your brand acts just like a person. When you know a person's reputation, you can predict his or her behavior. You know what that person is likely to do or say-or not do or say-in any given situation. Your brand works the same way.”
“And so evil flourishes and spreads because decent people don't want to make a fuss.”
“Whenever I think I know something is a classic, or an amazing song, I realise it's still so subjective, because you and your friends could be talking about something, say, '(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction' - an amazing classic song - or someone would be like, "'Hey Jude' is an amazing song!", and I'd be like, "I don't really like it."”

“Solitude is very different from a 'time-out' from our busy lives. Solitude is the very ground from which community grows. Whenever we pray alone, study, read, write, or simply spend quiet time away from the places where we interact with each other directly, we are potentially opened for a deeper intimacy with each other.”
“Our attitude towards suffering becomes very important because it can affect how we cope with suffering when it arises.”
“Financial markets need to become less, not more, efficient.”
