Modest Mouse - Karma’s Payment
“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson
“You will find meaning in life only if you create it.
It is not lying there somewhere behind the bushes,
so you can go and you search a little bit and find it.
It is not there like a rock that you will find.
It is a poetry to be composed,
it is a song to be sung,
it is a dance to be danced.” —Osho

“..we need to go for walks, have a drink, fall in love with each other before we can expected to be creative together..”
—Neil Richards on the best scenario in which writers can collaborate with each other.
“We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion.And medicine, law, business, engineering - these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love - these are what we stay alive for.”
— Dead Poets Society
“The sign of a beautiful person is that he always sees beauty in others.”
—Omar Suleiman
“One of the most commonly overlooked spiritual practices is daring to be completely honest with everyone you encounter. Some may say others cannot handle their honesty, but true honesty is not a strategy or a weapon of any kind. It is the willingness to be open and absolutely transparent in sharing how any moment feels in your heart. It has nothing to do with confrontation, accusation, or any form of blame.
True honesty is the willingness to stand completely exposed, allowing the world to do what it may, and say what it will, only so you may know who you are—beyond all ideas.” —Matt Khan
