PHILOSOPHY

"Bad decisions make good stories"
"None of us are going to deny what other people are doing. If saying bullshit is somebody's thing then he says bullshit. If somebody is an ass-kicker, then thats what he's going to do on this trip, kick asses. He's going to do it right out front and nobody is going to have anything to get pissed off about. He can just say 'I'm sorry I kicked you in the ass, but I'm not sorry I'm an ass-kicker. That's what I do. I kick people in the ass.' Everybody is going to be what they are, and whatever they are, there's not going to be anything to apologize about. What we are, we're going to wail with on this whole trip."--said by Ken Kesey in Tom Wolfe's Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. If this trip were life.
"Life without music would not be worth living"-Nietsche

音乐、电影和书籍

Love most music: classical, reggae, classic rock, grunge, jazz, random things.....
Books: The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. The Island by Aldous Huxley. Plastic Free by Beth Terry, Ishmael by Daniel Quinn....
Don't like movies in general. Can't sit still long enough.

Scientist and author Lewis Thomas once suggested how the people of Earth should communicate with the universe: "I would vote for Bach, all of Bach, streamed out into space, over and over again. We would be bragging, of course, but it is surely excusable to put the best possible face on at the beginning of such an acquaintance. We can tell the harder truths later."
