I know and understand you are much more than what I think you are but first I must deal with you the way I think you even if that's only my own thinking and not you.
My philosophy is: Don't think.
I didn't tie anybody up. And I was never on a scene where anyone was killed. I think the law says you can only keep me seventeen or eighteen years if I was never on a scene where anyone was killed. I was never on the crime scenes. I didn't kill nobody, I didn't tell nobody to get killed. I didn't get no trial, but we don't wanna hear that- don't wanna mix anything up with the truth.
If you spit in my face and smack me in the mouth and throw me into solitary confinement for nothing... what do you think's gonna happen when i get out of here?
To get yourself together you need not to even think there is anyone else in this world. I don't need to look down on, or get off on, or get over on. The hardest thing to overcome is our own lies, confusion and our jealousy
I can't judge any of you. I have no malice against you and no ribbons for you. But I think that it is high time that you all start looking at yourselves, and judging the lie that you live in.
You are not you, you are just reflections, you are reflections of everything that you think you know, everything that you have been taught.
I was a beatnik in the '50s before the hippies came along.
Sure, I'm crazy. But that used to mean something. Now, everybody's crazy.
The real strong have no need to prove it to the phonies.
In my mind's eye my thoughts light fires in your cities.
If I wanted to kill somebody, I'd take this book and beat you to death with it, and I wouldn't feel a thing.
I don't want parole; I'm too busy working on my web site....
Will of God… Whatever you wanna call it... You call it Jesus, call it Mohammed, call it goobybob, call it nuclear mind, call it blow the world up, call it your heart. Whatever you wanna call it, it's still music to me. It's there. It's the will of life.
