What poetry can, must, and will always do for us: it complicates us, it doesn’t ‘soothe.’.

The further you get from power, the closer you come to the truth..

Dilettantism is the sort of thing one must avoid..

I didn't go in to make friends or not make friends..

I get very antsy when I'm not occupied..

I rarely do things based on what everybody else is doing; I never have..

Xxxx xxxx x xxxx, xxxxx xxx x xxx xxx x xxxx. Xxxx xxxx xxxx x xxxxx xxxx xx Xxxxxxx..

Victor Wooten is the Carlos Castaneda of music.

The future will be what you contribute to and create..

Many of my lyrics are about having sex with prostitutes..

There's nothing better than now..

You can never learn anything that is not a part of yourself..

Is not living at all not better than living badly?.

Why be timid? Death is coming..

The closer you get to God, the more you become yourself..

Always listen for what you can leave out..

Once the music gets in you, it doesn't leave you..

Rush is the death of marriage..

What we have is a gift from Him. What we do with what we have is our gift to him.

Go in and get us a shrunken head!.

I loved all the parts of him, even the ones I didn't understand..
