"One cannot say with words what music says without them."

-- Steven Feld

“Stop and take your time to notice things and make those things you notice matter.”
“If your partner asks you if something bothers you, and something bothers you, the best thing you can do is say, "Yes, it bothers me." Otherwise you create a situation where they think everything is fine, continue with the offending behavior, while you build up a secret reservoir of resentment that will eventually come pouring out, to their shock.”
“any criticism heard secondhand sounds worse than it would face to face. Words spoken out of our presence strike us as more powerful, just as people we know only by reputation seem larger than life.”
“I'm trying to be present in my daughters life as much as I can. I didn't have any kids or really any family. I have a family but I just dove into work 1,000%. I think as an artist when you're young like that, when you move into your 30's or 40's if you have time to focus on that you need that time. It's part of that.”

“Failure defeats losers, failure inspires winners.”
“I just want to feel as much as I can, it's what soul is all about.”
“I'm always confused when people say how much they miss 'Invader Zim' because the show never stopped running in my head, and then I remember everyone else isn't in my head.Â I try to imagine the world for all those people who donâ€™t know what Zim's been up to since the show went off the air and it makes me shudder. How can people live that way? Hopefully this comic helps make the world a better place.”

“It seems the more I try to connect with the world, I am feeling more alone than I ever have felt before”
