People ask me all the time, 'What are you, a Democrat or a Republican? A Catholic or a Muslim..' What am I? I am none of these. I belong to nothing but the human race. Why isn't that ever enough?

We are missing something. Our youth today is empty. No longer do the children dream and believe they can change the world. Apathy has destroyed the beautiful idealism of our youth. The intricate illusions and fearless aspirations. The gleam in a child's eye. God help us. All hope is truly lost.

I'm tired of all this isolation. I'm tired of this triviality of life. I want real human emotion. I want to feel the natural spontaneity of life, the beautiful randomness and rawness that is life. I want to see you and I want you to see me and I want to bask in that moment of humility and intimacy and the acknowledgement of your dignity and my humanity, even if it is for a second. That'll be enough.

We must escape this monotony, this slavery of our minds, We have not achieved complete freedom yet.

God makes sense. It is naive to think that something so complex as the human being, with its capacity for compassion, knowledge, guilt, and love, could have been spontaneously created by some cosmic hiccup.

Unanswered prayers of lowly birth/On wings of folly round the earth/Illusion clouds the eyes that raise/To the emerald gods they praise.

Someone once asked me whether I am an idealist or a dreamer. I'm neither. I consider myself an optimistic realist. I see reality, but I give it the benefit of the doubt.
