“I know that there are scores of people plotting to kill me, and this is not difficult to understand. After all, did we not seize power by plotting against our predecessors? However, I am far cleverer than they are. I know they are conspiring to kill me long before they actually start planning to do it. This enables me to get them before they have the faintest chance of striking at me.”

“"Welcome to the real world", she said to me
Condescendingly.
Take a seat,
Take your life
Plot it out in black and white.
Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings
And the drama queens.
I'd like to think the best of me
Is still hiding
Up my sleeve.They love to tell you:
Stay inside the lines,
But something's better
On the other side.”

John Mayer (1977) guitarist and singer/songwriter
