“Let me ask you one question Is your money that good Will it buy you forgiveness Do you think that it could I think you will find When your death takes its toll All the money you made Will never buy back your soul”

You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.

The purpose of art is to stop time.

There are things I could say. But I don’t.

When you feel in your gut what you are and then dynamically pursue it – don’t back down and don’t give up – then you’re going to mystify a lot of folks.

May you grow up to be righteous, may you grow up to be true. May you always know the truth and see the lights surrounding you. May you always be courageous, stand upright and be strong. May you stay forever young.

People have a hard time accepting anything that overwhelms them.

There is nothing so stable as change.

I really didn’t consider myself happy or unhappy.

Here’s the thing with me and the religious thing. This is the flat-out truth: I find the religiosity and philosophy in the music. I don’t find it anywhere else.

Being noticed can be a burden. Jesus got himself crucified because he got himself noticed. So I disappear a lot.

Never make it perfect.

You’ll never be greater than yourself.

Don’t matter how much money you got, there’s only two kinds of people: there’s saved people and there’s lost people.

If I lived my life by what others were thinkin’, the heart inside me would’ve died.

To live outside the law, you must be honest.

I’ve never been able to understand the seriousness of it all, the seriousness of pride. People talk, act, live as if they’re never going to die. And what do they leave behind? Nothing. Nothing but a mask.

Forgiveness does not relieve someone of responsibility for what they have done. Forgiveness does not erase accountability. It is not about turning a blind eye or even turning the other cheek.

Forgiveness is simply about understanding that every one of us is both inherently good and inherently flawed.

We do not heal in isolation. When we reach out and connect with one another—when we tell the story, name the hurt, grant forgiveness, and renew or release the relationship—our suffering begins to transform.

Forgive yourself for what you have dreamed of yourself & what you have become.

Forgiving is not forgetting; its actually remembering–remembering and not using your right to hit back. Its a second chance for a new beginning. And the remembering part is particularly important. Especially if you dont want to repeat what happened.

Forgiveness is truly the grace by which we enable another person to get up, and get up with dignity, to begin anew.

Forgiveness for others and yourself too will transform your world into a beautiful view.

If you really want to apologize to someone, then change your behavior. Thats the best apology.
