Many Souls

          For every moment of triumph, for every instance of beauty, many souls must be trampled.

Never Turn

    Never turn your back on fear. Keep it in front of you. Like something that might have to be killed.

The Edge

          THE EDGE - There is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who've gone over.

It Will Chain You

1)  Never trust a cop in a raincoat.

2)  Beware of enthusiasm and love, both are temporary and quick to sway.

3)  If asked if you care about the world's problems, look deep into the eyes of he who asks, he will never ask you again.

4)  Never give your real name.

5)  If ever asked to look at yourself, don't look.

6)  Never do anything the person standing in front of you can't understand.

7)  Never create anything, it will be misinterpreted, it will chain you and follow you for the rest of your life.

Maybe There is No Heaven

         Maybe there is no heaven- or maybe this is all pure gibberish. A product of the demented imagination of a lazy drunken hillbilly with a heart full of hate who has found a way to live out where the real winds blow - to sleep late, have fun, get drunk, get wild, drink whisky and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested.
