It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature and everlasting beauty of monotony.

The revelation of thought takes men out of servitude into freedom.

Freedom means you are unobstructed in living your life as you choose. Anything less is a form of slavery.

What is ominous is the ease with which some people go from saying that they don't like something to saying that the government should forbid it. When you go down that road, don't expect freedom to survive very long.

Money won't create success, the freedom to make it will.
