world sometimes
You want the world to be what you want it to be, and sometimes the world doesn't want that.
thinking mind isolation
I want to know what you're thinking, you want to know what I'm thinking. But we're alone. In our own minds. We're trapped in this sort of isolation.
mind
We are all really alone. We're isolated in our own mind.
pain
We don't ever want to shut down and say, I'm afraid to go that far down the road because there's going to be pain. There'll be beauty, too, and if you stop here, you stop all that.
pain suffering accepting
I'll accept the pain and the suffering, because I know that in that there's a lot of beauty, too.
pain suffering world
All the great things that I get to be curious about, see, and experience because I'm sensitive to the world, it also opens up these areas where there's a lot of pain and suffering. You're just aware, aware, aware.
artist musician sensitive
We wouldn't be artists, writers, painters, musicians, if we weren't sensitive.

Life is worth celebrating and worth living even though we're all headed to the same hole at the end of the day.
thinking animal people
I think I'm really lucky that the things I'm able to love - people, animals - it's like the more you put yourself into it, the more you get out of it.
thinking people want
I think that most of the people I'm dealing with, they're a lot like me. So I'm not pushing people that don't want to do something; most of the people have a billion things going on, and they love it.
people decision shy
Occasionally there are people who are not like me, and I forget that they're more introverted or shy, or just don't want to make a decision so quickly.
dark moon creative
I would say anybody who's willing to listen to Dark Side of the Moon and watch The Wizard of Oz is already a very sensitive, creative person.
beautiful beautiful-life quality
Music has the power to transcend your physical being and take you up. Because music has a metaphysical quality it really makes your life beautiful.
father listening dying
I remember when my father was dying, I remember listening to Bjork, and listening to John Coltrane, and these things, and I don't know why but music has the power to transcend your physical being and take you up just a little bit.
