When I moved here, there was no Blue Knights. When I arrived, I went to the international organization and received permission to start a new chapter.
We had no other choice. There's good people in the world. This really is all we have. We have friends here. We have our lives here.
I have my 1973 Citroen DS 23 Pallas. I drive it all the time. It's still the most beautiful shape in the world.
The main thing (about the organization) is to enjoy motorcycles, ..and have a good relationship with the community.
Blackberry Smoke is a band that will never go hungry.
Punk and all that was just an image that ripped people off. Johnny Rotten's a wanker, and that's all there is to it.
I used to have the Range Rover LR3, which I loved very, very much.
Perhaps the most important ingredient in my work... is my brain - particularly the right brain... the free spontaneous side, and the left brain, which is careful and methodical.
My willingness to explore and work freely is not without risk, and at times, I find myself caught in a bind... Knowing I can fix whatever goes wrong allows me to paint, not without thought, but without hesitation.
Painting is so much more than the materials.
The only people I have ever seen paint successfully, consistently, with great authority, unselfconsciously and without fear of failing were about four years old.
When I was in school, I used to look out the window and see the big red double-deck buses driving by. It just looked so free.
If we want happiness, I think we should follow classic Greek wisdom and live with areté. The word directly translates as 'excellence' or 'virtue,' but has a deeper meaning — something closer to 'expressing the highest version of ourselves.' When we're showing up fully moment to moment, there's no room for regret/anxiety/disillusionment, just a whole lot of happiness. Here's to getting our areté on!
