Sometimes you say things in songs even if there's a small chance of them being true. And sometimes you say things that have nothing to do with the truth of what you want to say and sometimes you say things that everyone knows to be true. Then again, at the same time, you're thinking that the only truth on earth is that there is no truth on it. Whatever you are saying, you're saying in a ricky-tick way. There's never time to reflect. You stitched and pressed and packed and drove, is what you did.

The foolish man conceives the idea of 'self.' The wise man sees there is no ground on which to build the idea of 'self;' thus, he has a right conception of the world and well concludes that all compounds amassed by sorrow will be dissolved again, but the truth will remain.

Death is at any time blessed but it is twice blessed for a warrior who dies for his cause, that is, truth.

Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain't going away.

Truth alone will endure, all the rest will be swept away before the tide of time.

The deeper the truth in a creative work, the longer it will live.
