Quote

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.

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.

Waiting for the winds of change to sweep the clouds away. Waiting for the rainbow's end to cast its gold your way ... You don't get something for nothing. You can't have freedom for free

From the point of ignition. To the final drive. The point of the journey is not to arrive.

To me, the highest expression of life is art with jokes. It's very rarified, very difficult to accomplish if you want to be more than just funny, and more than just jokes about human gaseousness.

Geddy once joked, 'You're the only guy I know who rehearses to rehearse!

We're only immortal for a limited time.

No, his mind is not for rent To any God or government Always hopeful yet discontent He knows changes aren't permanent But change is.

You can surrender without a prayer, but never really pray without surrender. You can fight without ever winning, but never ever win without a fight.

Look in, look the storm in the eye. Look out, to the sea and the sky. Look around, at the sight and sound. Look in, look out, look around.

Half the world hates What half the world does every day Half the world waits While half gets on with it anyway

Sometimes you're up against everybody in the whole world - even your friends and family are saying, You need a single. You feel sometimes incredibly alone.
