"Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out.
It doesn't matter much to me.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

No one I think is in my tree, I mean it must be high or low.
That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right.
That is I think it's not too bad.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

Always no sometimes think it's me, but you know I know when it's a dream.
I think I know I mean 'Yes,' but it's all wrong.
That is I think I disagree.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever."

-The Beatles, Stawberry Fields Forever

Be patient toward all that is unresolved in your heart
And try to love the questions themselves.
- Rilke

"Because the world is round it turns me on...
Because the wind is high it blows my mind...
Love is all, love is new
Love is all, love is you."
- Beatles, "Because"

"Travel far enough away, my friend,
And you'll discover,
Something of great beauty -
Your self.

O, the world's a stage, they say,
Upon which mortals strut and play,
Until the final hour of day,
Until the curtain calls.

To the scores of silent alchemists, my friend,
And you'll discover,
In darkness and in light,
Bring magic to life,
We bow most humbly."
~Theme for Cirque du Soliel's "O"

"A failure is simply a non-presence of success. Any fool can accomplish faliure. But a fiasco, a fiasco is a disaster of epic proportions. A fiasco is a folktail, told to others to make them feel more alive, because it didn't happen to them."
