The Low Volta

Recommended Posts

With the courage of a hero and the innocent, loving heart of a child, one can meet the challenges of life fearlessly, yet not yield to cynicism or defensiveness.

We can be polished up by life, rather than being ground down by it. Often we defend ourselves against life by projecting a hard exterior; but the true heroes' strength lies in their compassion and sincerity, not in their armor.

Did you write that yourself because its really amazing.

"She wrote, with simple innocents,

About a world that once she could not see- She is a child, with beauty in her soul-

I offer her my friendship- And hope the cruel, commercial world will not destroy her spirit, or spoil the innocence

From which her great talent flows" - Nan Witcomb,1982.

"You cant controll tommorrow, Its not your time to borrow.

As the wheels of the world keep turning, Its the world that we are burning."

"Savez-vous quelle est notre maladie? C'est l'utopie.

Et saves-vous quelle est la votre? C'est la routine.

L'utopie c'est l'avenir qui s'efforce de naître.

La routine c'est le passé qui s'obstine à vivre.

J'aime mieux le mal d'enfant que le mal de mort."

-Victor Hugo-

(or:

"Do you know what our disease is? It's utopia.

And do you know what's yours? It's routine.

Utopia is the future that struggles to be born.

Routine is the past that refuses to die.

I prefer the children's disease over the disease of death.")

" Give any species enough rope and they're bound to f**k it up"

from "Too much Rope" CD "Amused too Death" by Roger Waters,

Brilliant CD,

Was nice to see the band together again for Live 8, maybe soon another Pink Floyd album.

The great Taoist master Chuang Tzu once dreamt that he was a butterfly fluttering here and there. In the dream he had no awareness of his individuality as a person. He was only a butterfly. Suddenly, he awoke and found himself laying there, a person once again. But then he thought to himself, "Was I before a man who dreamt about being a butterfly, or am I now a butterfly who dreams about being a man?"
