This is my favorite quote by the late, great, Stevie Ray Vaughan:

"You see, we are here, as far as I can tell, to help each other; our brothers, our sisters, our friends, our enemies. That is to help each other and not hurt each other."
Stevie Ray Vaughan

"There's a flip side to that coin...what if you do got me boxed in, and I gotta put YOU down? because, no matter what, you will not get in my way. Yeah, we've been face to face...but I will not hesitate. Not for a second".

Robert Deniro as Neil Macauley, "Heat".

"It's the sense of touch, In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In L.A., nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much that we crash into each other just so we can feel something."

Don Cheadle as Graham Waters, "Crash"

To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury,
and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and
wealthy, not, rich; to listen to stars and birds, babes and sages, with
open heart; to study hard; to think quietly, act frankly, talk gently,
await occasions, hurry never; in a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden
and unconscious, grow up through the common--this is my symphony.

--WILLIAM HENRY CHANNING.

Neither fire, nor moisture, nor wind can destroy the blessing of good deeds,
and blessings enlighten the whole world.
-Buddha
