“The greatest doer must also be the greatest dreamer”

“I dropped out of school, I followed around the Grateful Dead, I went to the Rainbow Gatherings. I think I needed to get in touch with the roots of humanity, of being just your basic who you are, who you come out as, and living on the streets taught me a lot about who you are. And then I go back to my grandmother’s tradition. I remember the things she would tell me about, like the snake that comes from the sky, and brings the rain, and there’s another snake underground, that brings the water. And these things I also found in the codices.”

Lila Downs (1968) chanteuse de jazz latino et de variétés mexicaines

“Today is like yesterday and tomorrow will be the same as today. God, help us! Take pity of us!”
