You know the way people begin to look like their dogs? Well, we’re beginning to look like each other Picture Quote #1

The pressures of being a parent are equal to any pressure on earth. To be a conscious parent, and really look to that little being’s mental and physical health, is a responsibility which most of us, including me, avoid most of the time because it’s too hard Picture Quote #1

If I had the capabilities of being something other than I am, I would. It’s no fun being an artist. You know what it’s like, writing, it’s torture Picture Quote #1

If people take any notice of what we say, we say we’ve been through the drug scene, man, and there’s nothing like being straight Picture Quote #1

You don’t need anybody to tell you who you are or what you are. You are what you are! Picture Quote #1

After the revolution you have the problem of keeping things going, of sorting out all the different views. It’s quite natural that revolutionaries should have different solutions, that they should split into different groups and then reform, that’s the dialectic, isn’t it - but at the same time they need to be united against the enemy, to solidify a new order Picture Quote #1

If there’s anything that you want, If there’s anything I can do, Just call on me, And I’ll send it along with love from me to you Picture Quote #1

Please don’t wake me, no, don’t shake me, leave me where I am, I’m only sleeping Picture Quote #1

If someone thinks that peace and love are just a cliche that must have been left behind in the 60s, that’s a problem. Peace and love are eternal Picture Quote #1

There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance Picture Quote #1

Love is the answer, and you know that for sure; Love is a flower, you’ve got to let it grow Picture Quote #1

I don’t purchase records. I do enjoy listening to things like Japanese folk music or Indian music Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you wonder, I mean really wonder. I know we make our own reality, and we always have a choice, but how much is preordained? Is there always a fork in the road, and are there two preordained paths that are equally preordained? There could be hundreds of paths where one could go this way or that way -- there’s a chance, and it’s very strange sometimes Picture Quote #1
