“From the time we're born until we die, we're kept busy with artificial stuff that isn't important.”

“We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.”

“We all know we're going to die; what's important is the kind of men and women we are in the face of this.”

“We have eyes, and we're looking at stuff all the time, all day long. And I just think that whatever our eyes touch should be beautiful, tasteful, appealing, and important.”

“And I hear from time to time people say, hey, wait a second, we have civil liberties we have to worry about. But don't forget the most important civil liberty I expect from my government is my right to be kept alive, and that's what we're going to have to do.”

“Cos we're starving
We're hungry for more of the good stuff
Thirsty for more of the bad stuff
When you gonna show us the way?”

“We're so busy watching out for what's just ahead of us that we don't take time to enjoy where we are.”

“I've learned now that this world isn't like Mother and Father. It doesn't care if we're happy, and it doesn't get sad when we die. We don't really matter to it at all.”

“We run when we're scared, we run when we're ecstatic, we run away from our problems and run around for a good time.”

“We've invented most of the stuff that we need and now we're just messing about”
