2 Amazing

3 Anger

  • 1. I drank for about 25 years getting over the loss of my father and I took the anger out on myself. I did a good job at beating myself up at sometimes.

  • 2. There is not in nature a thing that makes man so deformed so beastly as doth intemperate anger.

4 Anniversary

5 Architecture

  • 2. People kind of tend to mystify design and architecture by suggesting you need to train.
  • 3. Writing about music is like dancing about architecture.
