you don't need talent to be an artist. 'Artist' is just a frame of mind. Anybody can be an artist, anybody can communicate if they are desperate enough.

You change the world by being yourself.

Some people are old at 18 and some are young at 90. Time is a concept that humans created.

Every drop in the ocean counts.

Fracking kills, and it doesn't just kill us. It kills the land, nature and, eventually, the whole world.
