I didn't really grow up listening to blues, because I grew up in the Northwest. It wasn't really the center for blues.
cities towns factories
I always loved smokestack industry, and I love towns or cities that have grown up around factories.
talking space together
Everyone is on the internet but they're not all talking with each other. There are groups upon groups out there, but they don't talk to one another. So while the internet brings everyone into a shared space, it does not necessarily bring them together.

Every teacher of Transcendental Meditation is a hero.

I find the joy of the 'doing' increases. Creativity increases. Intuition increases. The pleasure of life grows. And negativity recedes.
love-is thinking universal-love
I think true love is not only true personal love but totality of love, universal love - to be in love with everything manifest and everything unmanifest.

We're like lightbulbs. If bliss starts growing inside you, it's like a light; it affects the environment.

fishing ideas waiting
Desire for an idea is like bait. When you're fishing, you have to have patience. You bait your hook, and then you wait. The desire is the bait that pulls those fish in-those ideas.

It's important that a film is loud and I hope many people agree. You should be inside of a film when you go into a theater. It should surround you, envelope you, so you can live inside a dream.
dream inspiration fishing
I long for a kind of quiet where I can just drift and dream. I always say getting inspiration is like fishing. If you're quiet and sitting there and you have the right bait, you're going to catch a fish eventually. Ideas are sort of like that. You never know when they're going to hit you.
dream
We only dream of images we already have inside of us.
