There's a new reality born every minute. Unless one is a believer in predestination (in which case I'll call the prestidigitator), or other puppet-like restraints on our powers, one is free to imagine and effect changes on the world. And if enough people do it, there are big changes. These things happen. Anything can.

Neil Peart
Adventures suck when you're having them.
Neil Peart
All four winds together can't bring the world to me Shadows cast a play of light, so much I want to see Chase the sun around the world, I want to look at life-In the Available Light. I'll go with the wind, I'll stand in the light.
Neil Peart
Stamina is the force that drives the drumming it's not really a sprint.
Neil Peart
When I'm riding my motorcycle, I'm glad to be alive. When I stop riding my motorcycle, I'm glad to be alive.

When I was young, my ambitions were very modest. I thought, If only I could play at the battle of the bands at the Y, that would be the culmination of existence!
